Safa Park

A morning walk around the block

Since my husband had a night flight and needed to sleep this morning little A and I went for a walk around the block.

Sand storm

Yesterday was very windy and it was so much dust and sand in the air. Today everything is covered with sand. Since it's a bit windy still we will wait until tomorrow before we clean the outside of the house and the car.

Safe House

B and I went to the cinema yesterday (for the second time, wohoooo!!) We saw Safe House with Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds. Denzel is one of my favorite actors and without him I'm not sure if the movie would have been as good as it was.  A lot of the fighting scenes reminded me of the Bourne movies.

Valentine's day

My wonderful husband gave me a beautiful bouquet of flowers :)

Ibn Battuta mall

We have finally made it to Ibn Battuta mall. Most things are "the biggest" something in Dubai and Ibn Battuta mall is the largest themed shopping mall in the world. There are 6 different sections in the mall, China court, India court, Persia court, Egypt court, Tunisia court and Andalusia court. It is a delight for the eye to walk through the 6 sections. Here's a few photos from our visit.

Night out

Last Wednesday  B and I had our first, child free, evening out in Dubai. We took a taxi down to Hilton Beach Hotel where we spent the evening. Had drinks at Bar 360 whilst watching the sunset.


Also had dinner in one of their restaurants before we headed home. It was so nice to be out just the two of us and to explore Dubai by night. More evenings like this to come! :)

Stomach flu

Little A, our maid and myself have been down with a stomach flu for a couple of days. It was so awful and I am glad to have recovered well from it.

After lunch we are going downtown to meet an old colleague of B and his family. They are here visiting Dubai for a few days. Our friend has an interview in Dubai by the end of the month so fingers crossed, they might be moving here soon :)
