The ladies take Dubai...
Guess which one of us had been up early for her flight? It wasn't me!
So, I picked up the BAMF and we jumped in our lady taxi (it's a thing - believe me) and quickly scooted to the apartment I was renting. After a Diet Coke break and dropping off of illegal goods Nyquil, it was a short walk to Dubai Mall for lunch...although the BAMF's healthy appetite put away a English Breakfast. :) We looked at stuff, chatted about upcoming nuptials and renuptials and even found a souvenir or two to take home and more contraband goods - yay bacon! After we wasted time until the bar was open wandered through the world's largest mall, it was time for sunset drinks near the base of the Burj Khalifa, Cala Bar. We wished you were all there, but enjoyed perfect weather and dancing fountains all the same. We decided an overseas meet up would be just the thing for some future date - we're looking at you, Charlie and Lytton!
Properly hydrated, we met the extremely cute guy I was apparently renting the apartment from (thanks, AirBnb!) and after I tried to prostitute Hubs (for work, nothing else) it was off to DXB where above picture was taken. And then I uncomfortably watched Anna Karenina and that hot blonde guy have sex on a small screen on the flight back to Doha - bad choice for a mostly Muslim flight.
Basically, the whole day I was like:

I hope Aditi got that upgrade she was hoping for!
Here's the Dubai fountains - you can pretend like you were there.
