My trip to Middle East => Dubai ( Part 1 ~ TBC)
You will never guess it! I actually went Dubai! Ya man, dunno about you, but it is definitely not in my " country-that-I-wanna-go" listing. Fortunately, I "survived" the trip except for some disgusting vomiting at the desert tour, so here I am posting pictures... Enjoy!!! ( P.S Bec I think most ppl wont go in their entire lifetime also.... =p )

Desert Tour
We went for a desert tour which included riding up & down on sand dunes ( the most disgusting part!), camel riding ( if you dun mind smelly), sand boarding etc
The car ride was TERRIBLE! The car can sit 7 passengers + 1 driver. Being the lightest of the group, I was seated at the back.
That was the worst place if you tend to get motion sickness easily. At first, I was still alright but after some time ( which felt like eternity) of up and down in the car, I started to break out in cold sweat. As I was with some VIPs, I tried to hold back. But cannot lah, so I vomited at the 2nd pitstop where there was some sand boarding activities going on. So I missed it lor! How to play when I was already feeling nausea and vomiting?? So wasted! Coz I polly wont go back there again...
After the 2nd pitstop, we were supposed to go back to the camp site for dinner. The front seat was given up to me. But somehow or rather, it did not help liao. So guess wat?
BIG BIG MISTAKE!!

Palm Jumeirah
Expensive houses at Palm Jumeirah
Depending on the location of the houses, some of them actually have their own private swimming pool & beach! Insane!! How can anyone be so damn rich!!! Apparently, there are a lot of rich people in the world. We were told that houses were sold off within 24hours. Erm, anyone of ya needs a goddaughter??
Altantic at Palm Jumeirah
BIG fish tank within Altantic

Wanna date? =p
Ya man! Dubai's local tibit is dates. Normal dried dates, chocolate coated dates, dates with nuts etc. I dun really like the normal dried dates, but the chocolate ones are okay. Ah Ha! Coz they tasted just like normal chocolates mah!! Got you!
Well, those dates in the picture above were too expensive, so the ones that I bought were mainly from Carrefour and airport. Still, it cost approximately AED30+ per box, which worked out to be roughly S$1o+

Flight details in Arabian! Keke... Do not worry, there was english version as well lah..
Anyway, I am too tired now.. it's 1.30am!! I need my beauty sleep!! Shall continue to blog about Burj, the 7 star hotel and the hotel I stayed in Dubai in my next entry... so stay tuned!!
