Dubai is a great place and it is very large. After going myself and getting lost I told my husband we need a map he claimed emphatically NO we do not need a map! (whats with men & maps?) I almost titled this blog Men and maps!
---So we got lost for a very long time the first time we went to dubai. The second time my husband wanted to go I said fine but buy a map. He replied again, I don,t need a map we can get there. Note: The problem isnt getting there, the problem is getting around to where we want to go. Anyway we successfully reached where we wanted (Jumeirah Palm)after just a little bit of floundering, then its time to go to Ikea-- we get lost. I decide Ive had enough and I want to go home...lets get a map. Still no map. I go to sleep and when I wake up we are still in the same area I went to sleep at!!!! Finally he asks enough people and we get on the highway and come home. The next day he wants to go back to Dubai. I tell him, ""I am not going
unless we get a map". He says ok, but does not get a map when we leave Al Ain, and when we get to Dubai we start our usual riding around in circles. I tell him to stop and get a freakin map! He says,
"I dont need a map but if
YOUwant to waste your money on a map I will go get one for you". So I tell him, "Yes, I want to waste my money on a map". So he goes in the store gets the map, gets in the car and says, "Can I see that map?" I wish someone had taken a snapshot of the expression on my face at that moment. then He continued to ask me for that map he uses it everywhere. I am shocked and amazed,lol!!! I dont know how many of you remember Erma Bombeck she wrote books based on family satire I used to love her books. I am going to start taking notes, so I can be the next Erma Bombeck.
Enjoy the pics they are of Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Medina, Jumeirah Beach, and Jumeirah Palm...
