    Where - Abu Dhabi
    Weather - hot

    We are just waiting for our flight back to Brisbane after spending 2 days in Abu Dhabi. We had booked an Etihad stopover deal - 2 for the price of 1 with breakfast and 24hr check in / check out - which was great because our flight doesn't leave until around 10pm. Very reasonably priced as well.

    Yesterday we went to Ferrari World - basically a theme park based around the Ferrari. It boasts the world's fastest roller coaster as well as the world's tallest loop on a roller coaster. We did the fastest one first and about 2 seconds into the ride I wondered what on earth was I doing here. Probably the scariest ride I've ever been on, followed by a close second by the highest loop coaster. Needless to say, we did not go back for seconds on any of those rides - we must be getting too old for all this now.

    So, no pictures this time and boarding is about to commence. Next stop, hopefully, Brisbane.
