    GOOD MORNING UAE 🇦🇪 DUBAI

    Today is disembarkation day of a relaxing and long cruise. We woke to a rainy morning in Dubai. Time to get all the luggage ready and move to the hotel for the last night of a great holiday. So breakfast then ensure all the bills are paid. Checked mum and Vicki’s and now we are ready to leave. Contacted our transfer driver, now hopefully everything goes to plan. The only issue we had with the ship was the performance of Reception, Excursion and communications. Everything else was good. Now for the next leg of our great adventure.
    What a hectic day, first off the boat, through carry on check and then find our luggage… all when well and we were off the boat by 8:30am. I went out and found the driver and then it was a matter of rounding everyone up and into the van. Mum cut her arm on the suitcase or the drivers belt and was bleeding 🩸 all over the place. We got her patched up and everyone in the van. Mum feel a bit crook and has laryngitis. I am still feeling under the weather but better than yesterday. Good drive through the city to the hotel and when we got there the line up was a mile long from all the other guests. The best part was they were booking everyone in. When it came to our turn we had to wait about an hour and a half for the key so we decided to store the luggage and head to the railway station. We all caught the train back into the city and got back on the Big Bus tours to do the blue line. This brought us up the marina where all the magnificent yachts are parked up and we found a place for lunch Expensive for food here but you only live once. By the time we finished lunch it was getting late and mum and Vicki were getting tied so they headed back to the hotel with Wolfgang and Rell and I continued on the bus. Unreal sights, buildings and money. I don’t know how long it can last people living like this. Anyway it was good to see. We then head back to the hotel on the train…. We’ll that is an experience in its self. Arrived back at hotel got our room and luggage and time for a shower and rest. Had dinner at the hotel… waited about an hour after order, not a good start. After dinner we caught up with the crew for a few farewell drinks 🍻 then off to bed.
