A trip to the Arabian Desert

Before Christmas I had the absolute holiday of a lifetime. I spent it in Dubai, down by the Marina Promenade just next to Jumeirah beach.

In Dubai, everything comes with a side of decadence.

If you get the chance to just sit in one of the many coffee shops of arabic restaurants along the beach front, do. A great place for people watching and to take in the beauty of the people who live here. Arabic women stroll along effortlessly in beautiful silk robes adorned in the finest embellishments, no outfit is complete without a Louis Vuitton or Gucci handbag and a fabulous pair of shoes. 

Places you MUST visit when in Dubai; The Madinat (like an Arabian disney land), Al Qasr hotel for pure opulence, The Emirates Mall, The Dubai Mall, any mall you pass!! The Palace, part of the old town, and of course the desert for camel rides, luxurious resorts, falcon shows and the most spectacular sights.
