Deserts, Camels, Ocean, Cities, all in Dubai!
And so Now we go to Dubai another LONG trip! The flight was soooooo boring that I couldn't believe that boredom could actually get even worse when I have studied and do projects and homework in the past. But such boredom exists. Now off with part of my boring life and time to get on with the fun part of my trip. So when I got to the airport it was HOT! I guess it's because the temperature in Dubai can get up to 113 degrees Fahrenheit in June. But I'm here in July so it must be hotter over there now. So this begins a new story of a person in a huge oven or a turkey getting roasted in a hot oven for thanksgiving cause that's how I felt over there. I couldn't believe the residents in that place didn't even sweat as much as I did. HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!!!!!!!!(I would add so much more exclamation points but that would be a waste of time and energy.) I am so sorry but it is the truth! Dubai was HOT! (Tip of advice: try to not show to much skin in Dubai so people don't go looking at you like a weirdo since the people there have different beliefs and religions.)But that didn't stop me from having a good time either. When I got to the hotel I was wiped out again so yeah I hit the hay again too.... So when I woke up I found that the whole world was awake around me since it was late afternoon while I just woke up. I take hygiene for myself very serious cause me don't want to smell or feel dirty so I cleaned myself (of course) and threw on a relax tee and some shorts cause I was going to just get settled around the hotel and flip on the TV. When dinner came I went over to room service and ordered dinner cause I felt like a lazy cat so yeah. The food was delicious and the flavors so new and different from the ones in the U.S that it was my most favorite out of my whole trip. Soon it was dawn and as the sky was turning to pinkish purple to night sky blue I went out my balcony looking over wondering what to do tomorrow.

Now Starts a new day and the sun shone through the sky. I had a full hot breakfast which was was a complimentary breakfast. Now remember when I said I was absolutely beach crazy? Well the next day the first thing I did was...(Drum roll please) The Beach! It was very close to the hotel which is really a resort but oh well life is not perfect so I will call it a hotel. (excuse and sorry for the rudeness if it was rude to you.) Anyways I went to the to the beach with sunblock, sunglasses, a flower hat, a towel, and necessary beach stuff. The beach or where the resort was called was Palm Jumeirah, a place where supposedly was a great place for travelers looking for relaxation and a sunny beach. ( As stated on the website for the hotel.) They were not lying cause everything was true about it. The beach was so sunny, calm, relaxation in the beach, light blue waves smoothing the shore out, and golden sand. The water was warm and so blue that I thought that this type of beaches only existed in the movies. Here is how Palm Jumeirah is like. (1st pic) and the resort (2nd pic)

One of the places I went to the the yellow boats and went sight seeing around Dubai and there was a bunch of photo opportunities every second of the ride. But everywhere I went were long lines and so I was bored I chatted with another tourist who says she was from the U.s too. And I also went to Dubai's old town which was exactly on how Dubai used to be in the early days and like walking back to the past as I saw merchants selling perfumes, spices, textiles, and fish. It was like being in the movie Aladdin. Then I saw Dubai museum which was built with what looked like sand! It was built in 1787 which is the oldest building standing in Dubai today. So cool with the audio and videos explaining the past and there culture's roots. And I also went to Dubai Dophinarium. There were dolphin and seal shows plus a magician and a bird show about 20 of the most rarest birds. Very enjoyable and educational too. And so Dubai is probably one of the most amazing and interesting places in the world that you must go too.
