Finally after 2 and half years of Marriage and getting two visas (USA and Australia) Rejected today me and Priya finally managed to go on a vacation out of India. Have come to Dubai to visit my brother. He has already chalked out a nice plan for the 15 days we are here.
Arrived at Dubai Airport morning 10.30, the Emirates flight was actually half an hour earlier than its scheduled arrival. Got our immigration checked, though the immigration girl was pretty grumpy and she was busy talking to her Boy Friend on her hands free while working. Met up with Anuj and we headed for his home in Al Nadah, Sharjah. Loved the Dubai city. Loved watching almost all brands of Car in the world.
In the afternoon we decided to celebrate Sonia’s birthday via video conference as she is still in India. Loved the Chocolate Mousse cake from the bakery near our house. Saw world’s biggest and yummiest Strawberries. Later we headed to for the “Central Perk” Café at Jumeriah. Its indeed was a great experience. As per a trivia thrown in by Anuj this café chain is actually owned by the Guy who played Gunther in the Original “Friends”. The café looks exactly like the set of central perk in the tv, Especially the entrance. Had a coffee and sandwich on the couch like the “F.R.I.E.N.D.S.”.
Later we decided to head out to Jumeriah Beach and had a couple of mandatory tourist style pictures taken near the Burj – Al – Arab. Than we headed for the Barasti Bar on the beach and chilled out a bit. There I saw my dream bike Harley Davidson V-Rod for the first time.
So had a pretty exciting first day in Dubai, still we are planning to watch “Angels and Demons” at Midnight.
