Day 3 "Its not the fall that kills you, its the landing"

Sunset in the Arabian Desert

After 2 water themed days, we decided to skip the heat and hit the slopes. That's right, snow in Dubai.



Snow Park



The snow park is truly amazing. Ski slopes, tubes and snowmen. The kids just love this place and if it was not for your hands almost falling of and your nose permanently frosted,you might be able to spend a day here. The slopes are pretty intense and you need to be an expert, if you want to come out alive.

After lunch, we conducted some window shopping at the Mall of Emirates for a few hours before heading back to the hotel.



Camel Ride



Our next adventure is the Arabian Desert. Massive dunes, serene sunsets, camel rides (our camel's name was Champat), belly dancing, shishas, henna and a truly Arabian BBQ equals an unforgettable experience. This is certainly one experience, you cannot miss, when visiting Dubai.

 

Desert Safari



There is still one more adventure for the evening - Mina Bazaar souk. All I have to say about this is that I got ripped off. Biggest tourist trap in Dubai.
