Day 69 to 71: Do Buy in Dubai

Spending money and showing off how much money you have seems to be the main activity in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, these crazy cities surrounded by desert where fancy shopping malls house ice-skating rinks and indoor ski fields. We stopped by for a weekend to visit our friend Teresa who is an old workmate of Michael's from his Genesis days in Hamilton. Teresa has lived in Abu Dhabi for 3 years and we enjoyed being shown around and lunching at tasty restaurants and enjoying coffee at the opulent Emirates palace.
