My second day in Dubai was pretty quiet as Allan felt the need to clean his entire apartment floor and some of the outside windows despite the insane heat outside. So, I relaxed and did some homework.
In the evening, we went to happy hour in the MovenPick hotel nearby. No pictures there, but it was basically and ex-pat’s type bar where we could see some Olympics and he could enjoy a few cold beers.
After that, we got ready to go out with some other of Allan’s new colleagues – all lovely women! We shared a taxi in to Jumeirah and went for drinks at a very nice Persian style bar called Rooftop. It is located in the One & Only Royal Mirage, which was quite cool in the front with camel statues, though we were in the annex building. We had drinks with four others who are all very well-travelled and experienced in teaching, life, etc.
(this picture took 5 minutes to upload…I am gonna have to figure out something else for the pictures….)
Anyway, that was the end of Day 2.
