Dubai

Dubai is hands down one of the coolest places I have ever been but we did a terrible job of taking pictures. Keith and I flew from Salt Lake and Ashley flew from Colorado Springs and met us in Washington DC to fly 14 hours to Dubai. The flight was great, we got our own row. Ashley slept on the floor and I stretched out over the two seats and on Keith's lap. Keith caught up on all his movies and Ashley and I caught up on sleep ha. Once we got there we were busy checking things off the list that we wanted to do and see. Here are some of the things we did (a lot of these pictures are from the internet because we did such a poor job of taking pictures)

The Fountain Show is unreal. Its similar to the one in Las Vegas but better. I think they have 5 different shows and we stayed for 3. It was right at the base of the tallest building in the world. 
 
Burh Khalifa- Tallest Building in the World
 
Dubai Marina
Mall of the Emirates
Indoor Skiing  
Mosques In the Desert
Aquarium
 
Candy Store
Our Hotel 
Rides Across the River 
Palm Jumeirah, these man made islands are crazy.
Atlantis, we wanted to go to it, but could only see if from a distance.
Jumeirah Beach Park. Dubai is a HOT, 100++ degree desert and it felt SO good to get in the water. (Although the water in the Persian Gulf was very warm, keith hated it, but Ashley and I loved it)
 
Madinat Jumeriah Hotel
Burj Al Arab
 
We had a great time and were so happy Asher could come with us!
Getting home was quitethe trip in itself. We flew from Dubai to Washington DC. From DC, the flightswere horrific, so we had to come up with a round about way to get home. We flew from DC then to Las Vegas, then to Las Angles, then to San Diego, then to Salt Lake. It was CRAZY but still so fun. We got some free first class up grades (sweeeet) and I got to talk to Mitt Romney :)
