It was an eventful week with Jeanette and Ian- I was able to take a couple of days leave which was good. On Monday night Liz and I went with Ian and Jeanette to see a film in Gold Class at the Mall of the Emirates- big leather lazy boy reclining chairs and waiter service to bring nachos- we saw Bad Lieutenant with Nick Cage. Tuesday night we had a Thai meal at the Mango Tree overlooking the fountains at Burj Khalifa and then had a drink at Bar 63 on the top of the Address hotel. During the days they visited the JBR beach, Jumeirah Beach Hotel's private beach and rode on the Metro to the Marina. When I was off on Wednesday we went up to the Creek Club, Ian and I hit some golf balls on the range and we all spent some time sunbathing and lunching by the pool. Swarms of flies liked Jeanette's Caesar salad, which saw us all wafting them away whilst she finished! Wednesday night was football night, Thursday we did a barbeque in the back garden for when the kids got in early from school and later went to Dubai Mall, did a bit of shopping and sat for drinks near the fountains. On Friday we all went with the girls to the Atlantis Hotel's Aquaventure waterpark. The weather was great, not too hot and we watched the sun go down from the Palm, which was nice. The week all went just too quickly, after a chinese takeaway on Friday evening we watched some films and I dropped I&J at the airport for their night flight.
