My Birthday Day... Burj Kahlifa
The day started fantastically with a cake from the hotel...
Then we had a day in the shopping mall under the Burj Kahlifa where the worlds largest pain of glass can be found.
It's a Guiness Record...
From there it was onto and up the world's tallest building: Burj Kahlifa
You can only go up to the 124th floor (just over half way) - but it's still very impressive.
From there we walked around the fountain display and had a lovely meal which saw us onto the 8th of October when Nadine then had her birthday!
The meal was once again....

Safari Adventure... PURE!
A nice and slow start to the day... Missing breakfast but therefore having a Cesar Salad later in the morning.
Which tasted...
Then it was time to go on a Desert Safari Adventure...
Which, once the jeep go stuck turned out to be a real adventure!!!
It didn't seem so bad at first...
Until the time pasted and the sun set...
Going... Going... Almost gone! 
....and we're still here!!!
But we did manage to get out and meet up with the others for the grill and belly dancing.
What's out of place in this photo?
...richtig the light bulb! That's not traditional! :-) Then we came back and had drinks to a live blonde DJ untill shortly after midnight to welcome my birthday!
What a brilliant day, evening and night ~ with special friends that mean a lot to me. And now... The picture of the day:

What An Eventful Day...
Taxi Rides...
Aquarium...
Security Guards...
Life Guards...
Jelly Fish...
And last but by far not the least ~ Food!
So how did it all start I hear you ask yourself.
Well it all started here:
At the Nasimi Beach at the Atlantis Palm Hotel.
Looking back at Downtown Dubai.
Some people were hungry - even after that meal from last night!
The metro and Old Dubai. 
And the beach side of the Atlantis Hotel arch.
Not long after that Stefano was escorted to us by two Gorilla sized security guards... Apparently you have to be 21 or older to be at this beach.
So it was time to pack-up and go to the Aquaworld and Atlantis Lost Chambers.
The arch from the sea facing side.
So first was the Aquaworld.
Then over to the Lost Chambers.
What a BRILLIANT FANTASTIC AND AMAZING place. I love it.
Words can not describe how I felt when I was here...
It's wonderful. An diver of any kind MUST see this place.
And a personal comment to Jason - now THIS is an aquarium window!
So from there it was back to downtown Dubai and out to the Marina Walk for our evening meal.
Which was...
Indian.... Yeah!
