Traveling DINKs

DINKs (Double Income No Kids)

Hello from Dubai!! Amy and I got here on Sunday and have been taking in the sights. Dubai is a really cool city in the UAE (United Arab of Emirates) located on the Arabian Gulf (a stones throw from IRAQ...

We are staying at the Grand Hyatt Dubai, the largest 5 star hotel in Dubai (for now). It goes for $2,000 AED ($55o USD) per night, but I have found that of all things coffee is by far the most expensive thing!!! It's $20 AED per cup!! That $6-7 USD!!!! For a cup of JOE... Not a Latte or Cappuccino, but coffee.. Lucky for me the have Starbucks and Caribou Coffee.. The Arab coffee is BLAM!!!


This is the Burj Al Arab, the worlds only 7 star hotel.. (They most hold and wipe for the extra 2 stars..) It's the hotel that Tiger Woods hits the drive of the helipad.. I have no idea how much it is to stay here. They probably don't even have a price. You must bring a chest of gold and jewels or something..

Yes, Dubai even has an indoor Ski Park at a Mall... It's actually pretty functional.. So much for Poopy Land MOA!!!

Currently Dubai is in the process of building 500 new building (right now..) and this is a section where just over 200 are under construction. The Burj Dubai (not in the pic) will be the tallest building in the world when completed.. They are currently up to the 158th floor...

Rush Hour!!!

Dubai is cool.. It's super clean. Service is incredible. And the people are very nice. They love America. Seriously, it's suburbia America on HGH.. Applebee's, Chili’s, Hardies’, McD's, you name it..
