Ski Dubai, Mall Of The Emirates

Ski Dubai

Ski Dubai is an indoor skiing slope in the Mall of the Emirates. Yeah, maybe your mall has an ice rink, but it just can’t hold a candle to this thing. The food court surrounds the bottom of the slope. Staff was friendly and helpful in getting me set up with good equipment. 120 dirhams (something like $30) for two hours on the slope.

Ran into a bunch of kids from the USS Stennis on shore leave there, snowboarding. Stay safe out there in the Gulf, guys.

Burj Dubai Tower, Dubai

Burj Dubai Constrction site

I stayed at the Al Manzil hotel in Dubai a few weekends ago. Real nice hotel, and right across the street from the Burj Dubai construction site.

United Arab Emirates, Middle East

8 weeks in the desert

Went to the UAE for a business trip at a construction site. Most of my time was spent in a camp in the middle of the desert, but I did get the opportunity to get into both Abu Dhabi and Dubai on a few weekends. The highlights were the indoor skiing at the Mall of the Emirates in Dubai, and deep sea fishing in Abu Dhabi.
