Dubai Press Tour - Day 1

I do believe a philosophy, when you are so eager to do something, you will not always get what you want. Before I board the plane, I am so prepared to get an 8-hour sleep in my little economy class seat. I have brought along a comfortable pillow, my own eye shield (just do not want to ask the stewardess to send me one after ages), and even drink my Chinese medicine which helps to achieve a quality sleep. However, I did not sleep for a second on my 8 hour flight because a man from Bahrain is sitting next to me, and he keeps moving his position and pushing my elbow or disturbing me in other ways. Sigh......it is really a cruel thing for meiling who has always been sleeping like a baby.

We have landed Dubai at 4ish, and when we reached our hotel, it was around 5 or 6am. The hotel was so full on that night, and we only got a limited number of rooms for the media. So, we have to wait in the lobby for a longer period of time. I took the chance to see the beautiful hotel which is a 4-star deluxe, I think it is doing more than it is required to do. What a lovely hotel with a touch of Arabia.

We also visited:

Raffles Dubai

Burj Dubai, the Tallest Man-made Structure on Earth

Dubai Mall, the Largest Mall in the World with the Largest Indoor Aquarium

Chill Out Lounge, an ice bar in Dubai with -6 degrees. The glass is also made of ice!!!

What a long long day........................
