Talk about having bad luck in a foreign city. Today was no different to the start of our trip!
We decided to have a sleep in and pack, after i had sorted everything out with the girls- not a fun start to the day! After we checked out we went to the markets once again and had shopped around for a few hours. After this we ventured to the Emirates Palace and had gold cake and a camelchino- cappuccino made of camels milk!! It was so humid today that walking outside made my camera lens fog up, despite this we ran around taking photos for an hour in every possible combination we could think of! After the palace we went to the mall and had a look around and then we made our way back to the mosque to see it at night. We just made the time cut but it was so worth it- it was beautiful! Like nothing you would have ever seen before. One of the girls was heading back so we rushed through the mosque and then made our way back to the hotel just in time for her to leave for her flight- the only thing is she left her wallet in the taxi. We did everything we could but it was gone, to tope it off the travel agent had messed up her booking and her name wasn't on the flight list so we had to rush there with as much money as we could find so that she wouldn't miss her flight. I swear it wasn't our day!! But i admire her because there is no way i could have coped with that much stress! The taxi driver was a champ and we were all so shaken up we couldn't even count the bill out so he found it quite entertaining. At least we made people laugh right!
We finished the night with tv and room service and then we just crashed ready to start the second part of our holiday!
