love the theming in the forbidden valley
Lookie here
Did I mention POTS?
complete with all 7 stars of luxury!
Terrence from the bridge
The hotel central stairwell
Even the toilets are beautifully decorated
The Abu Dhabi corniche walk
I spy with my little eye...
The place is both a cultural, educational and commerical site
Shaun on a rock
Sheeps are standard issue on the mountains here
This sunset view is priceless
The next highlight in the mall will include
As the sun sets
Quick hide the Shisha Hookah stash!
Even the flooring marble patterns are all intricately laid out
Even their underpasses are elaborately decorated, with flora walkways too
The gardens, yea nice...
The jeeps look like ants in the distance
Neat masonry homes by the lake
we had to go on all fours at some points too
Sights of the setting sun along the freeway
That's all for the souk!
The house courtyard, featuring the iconic wind tunnels
Random skyline photo
Love the overbanked corners
Spot lighting to mimic daylight
No underwater city is complete without Dolphins!
it does get as hot as 48 degrees midday
The place is real breezy!
No expense were spared in the washing area too, they look fantastic
Don't try drinking the water!
Shaun, sand, knoll
The nearby Jumeirah hotel is big, but does not match up in stars!
The gang on the (lower) hills!
The sights just gets better with each turn!
Oh at least there's some water bodies here
Thank goodness for sign posting!
Back at the main atrium to the exit
Few of the nicely decorated pillars within the hall
Finally.. should had gotten a fast pass. :P
John found a rock of his own!
Our rest spot overlooks a large knoll
All board!
God, these lights are blinding
Oh look a river otter!
At the end, destination, Atlantis!
There are beaches everywhere, wow!
Like the Burj Khalifa!
