Dubai Mall

We were both actually off work yesterday, so we went to Dubai to see if we could find some bargains in the Dubai Shopping Festival. We decided to give the new Dubai Mall a try. It is a really nice Mall, very spacious and good selection of shops which they have tried to group together in some kind of order - which really helped me find all the gadget shops in one place much to Caroline's dismay! I did actually buy a gadget, I needed a new bluetooth car kit. The main complaint I have with most of the malls here is that the floors are too shiny! Nice that they are very clean, that's good, but if you are wearing normal shoes you are constantly slipping on the surface. It is actually easier to "skate" down the pathways than to walk! So, note to self; must wear trainers next time we go shopping.



The mall has an aquarium in it. It is really quite a huge tank with loads of fish in. You can pay to go into it ans there is a glass tunnel you can walk through. We, being skinflints, didn't and just looked from the outside - but you get a pretty good view anyway.
