Dubai - Fun in the sun!

We went to Dubai for a week in February this year, and we had no idea what we were in for at all. Of course Dubai has the largest tower in the world, and it's seriously in a desert. However, Dubai is beautiful. The architecture is outstanding, and the resorts are to die for. We stayed in 3 different places during our stay, and each one had great service, amazing facilities and beautiful scenery. Dubai is also great for kids! We went to a water park, indoor skiing, and so much more! Let's not even mention the shopping.

We stayed at the Shangri-La Hotel one night. Scott had the hotel put roses, champagne and a cake in the room for Valentine's Day. So sweet!

Here we are in the underwater restaurant found in the Burj al Arab hotel.


You must go indoor skiing at the mall in Dubai. Crazy!
The first part of the week we stayed at the Madanat Jumeirah El Qasr resort on the Persian Gulf, and it was perfect. The service was impeccable, and the resort was HUGE!
The worlds only 7 star hotel.
The front of our resort often had really nice cars like Ferrari's and Bentley's parked. Only in Dubai.





We stayed at the Bab Al Shams resort the last part of the week in the desert. It was very tranquil and beautiful.

We took a desert jeep ride which scared me to death, but Scott had a blast!



Camel riding is a must here.





I will never forget the sunsets here. The sun literally sets in the mist.
