Where is the Dubai mall?
The Khalifa in all it's towering glory
So much for a metro experience!
And here is our destination!
Another train in the station
Passing by Dusit
and runs completely along the iconic Sheikh Zayed Road
besides a smaller green line in the shurbs
The red metro line is the only main operational line
Towards Al Bada'a
Rolling into the Al Murooj area
Inside the trains
Departing on the train again
The stations look almost like those in Singapore!
In a station
Passing by the world trade center
Visibility is rather good today. No sand storms. :P
Various sights along the metro
Aye captain!
Commence overground surfacing
All board and wrap speed captain!
Digging the station lighting
Hitting the metro into the city!
For our transportation for the day
Apparently this brings you out the Arabian gulf
Anything with a dolphin rocks!
Lookie out here an ampibious bus!
The Burjuman center in the early mornings
Morning coffee check!
A nice day to visit the Dubai mall!
But it became 3 hours instead due to a highway jam
Back at our hotel in no time! That's all for our Abu Dhabi trip!
The stadium by the bus station on our way back
That might happen if we run out of ad space on taxi roofs!
Strolling and exploring the nearby town
Checking out Arabian sweets in the supermarkets
Iconic tent-thingie included!
The view of the mall atrium
Got Pool and Bowl?
Topped with a fanastic fruit smoothie!
Trying out more Arabian meaty foods for the night!
The food court areas nicely themed with fountains
Looks just like in Singapore!
The Al Wahda Mall!
Cabs are really afforable here in Abu Dhabi, with a 1AED starting fare
Popping right up in the heart of town!
Even their underpasses are elaborately decorated, with flora walkways too
Tunnel vision
Niffy little sidewalk fountains, don't fall over!
The Abu Dhabi corniche walk
