Wowsers what a busy day. We all had a brilliant nights sleep and woke about 9.30.
First stop the Dubai Miracle Gardens. What a sight they were. We took a taxi which headed out towards the desert and arrived at these gardens. They were in a complete circle and were full of colour. Mainly petunias but geraniums and sunflowers too. How they kept them in such pristine condition is beyond me because not one dead head was visible.
Next we went to the beach for some lunch. This was called La Mer and was very nice, full of eateries ( all dry) and the actual beach was very nice.
Then it was back to Catherine’s place to get changed and we were off on the metro in the opposite direction for a meal. A Greek place which was hugely expensive so we ate starters twice. Catherine’s boss had mates there so the first starters were complimentary. However, in Dubai they have this thing called ladies night where certain bars let ladies drink 3 or 4 drinks free. Sorry Pete!! The red wine was delicious.
Off to the real desert tomorrow .

Elaine Delves No dead heads...built in the name - Miracle Garden. Sounds awesome.
