Staycation day 5

Amy Anderson invited us to come to Dubai for a nice long weekend.  How could we refuse? Pat, Jacob and I  drove to Dubai which took only an hour and stopped by the Dubai Outlet Mall to shop for some good deals.  Apparently in Dubai paying $55 for a T-shirt is a good deal so we left empty handed.
Here in Africa I barter with the woman for something small I thought my sister would like.


Pat tries juice outside the Syrian area - he thought it was coffee
We drove a bit farther and met Amy at the Global Village.  This was my third visit and each time I go it is different.  We started at the African area and then moved to see China, Syria, Morocco and then saw India, Qatar, and the UAE.  Even after three times I know that it is a place I could go again and again.  Global village is open from November till March.  They have cultural experiences, foods and booths with items made in their country.  The cost of admission is only 10 AED or about 3 dollars!
