Set off from glasgow on our three month trip. Our flights were with Emirates and they were bluddy brilliant! Food was good, service was good. But, best of all had to be the in cabin entertainment. There were hundreds of movies, tv programs, and music to choose from. Caught some good films and chilled out with some sweet music. First impressions on Dubai was 'WOW!'. The sheer size and wealth displayed by this place is amazing. The airport is like a palace in some sections with the size of ceilings and pillars. The vastness of this very new and growing city was mad. first day we went shopping to dubai mall which is the worlds largest shopping centre and holy crap it is huge! The wealth on display is unreal. people just milling around buying thousands of pound of clothes and then walking out into massive sports cars and jeeps. There is also many a buissnessman {ugly} with many a girl {beautiful} on his arm. extremely clean and safe feeling place tho. never did we feel unsafe of threatened in its vastness. everyone seems respectful and nice. aftershopping and not buying anything bar a t-shirt, we went for a sight tour of the BAHJ KAHLIFA, the worlds tallest building which was impressive! also had a wee tour of other buildings near by. After this we went off to have food on a balcony at TGI Fridays looking onto the bahj kahlifa and other hotels and just chilled out and enjoyed the views and fountain shows. After a large feast we headed of to find a bar and have a few drinks. After day one of dubai, extremely impressed with the size and scale of the place but might need to re-morgage the house if i were here longer than 3 days!! haha.
