Apartment Heaven

Thankfully a couple of weeks ago the time came to leave the joys of the Golden Sands No 5. This being the delightful place that TTI had put us up in whilst we looked for somewhere to stay.

The fact that this was only a studio apartment, and that Jeremy was stuck in it almost 24/7 was enough to drive him nearly completly mad (the curtains in the corner of the room were looking a little frayed at the end of the stay, and if there had been carpet available I am sure that he would have been chewing that as well 😊

We have now found ourselves a delightful little apartment in a place called the Burj Residences which is situated just behind Burj Dubai. We have a view that overlooks the pool and we found that when the 5 indian labourers were delivering our furniture that they spent more time looking out at the girls in there bikinis, than they did putting our sofa together.

This seems to be a common theme here in Dubai. I have noticed that when we are stuck in traffic on the roads that the workers in the buses will literally STARE at you out the window of the bus. It can actually be a little disturbing when they turn fully around in their seat just to keep there eyes on you. I will try and take a photo of it next time it happens.
