Built by Intamin AG, it reaches a top speed of 240kmph
And gold souk entrance
The Dubai Skyline in the distance
In a station
That's all folks!
I wonder why Singapore has a sand shortage...
The Yas Marina Circuit
Hang loose man!
Floral patterns constantly line the walls of the mosque
The Khalifa in all it's towering glory
Love the airtimes over the dunes!
Towards Al Bada'a
view of the central area from the sides
Departing on the train again
Excellent sights on the dunes

To roll!
The race track and grandstand's a short walk away
I am in the middle of nowhere!
There is no dune too steep or high!
The road serving Yas hotel
The stations look almost like those in Singapore!
With some rather cute welcome camels
boeing everett factory 06

Some of the great sights along the way
the world's fastest hydraulically-launched roller coaster (Formula Rossa)
Now for a visit to the race track!
Apparently this brings you out the Arabian gulf
They can all be found in one collective area
For our transportation for the day
The cars can lean 40 degrees on each side at times!
Spare tire - Check!
SPLOSSH!
The inner walkways with the iconic gold palm pillars
Approaching Yas Island from the freeway
making our humble exit from the halls

The Burjuman center in the early mornings
The strong winds make real nice ripples over the sand
Dune bash dune!
Staring into the wilderness
Random chicks in a desert - Check!
Once alls here, the dune bashing will begin in a convoy
Jeff hitting the waves!
Anything with a dolphin rocks!
Just like this convoy here
The red metro line is the only main operational line
The Al Arab and the clear seas
A view so unreal...
