#11weekstogo #familyholiday

By now I am sure you are getting very excited to travel to the middle east in 11 weeks time. I bet you are worried about my organisational skills of this massive event in the Jones family calendar. Not to fear...  Each week I will send you an update on the activities which we will be doing upon your arrival in the UAE. I will plan each day down to tee, but that is not what holidays are about, so you are going to sit back, relax and enjoy.

 

To start, I would like to introduce...The Burj Al Arab: the sail boat building, 7* hotel

 
We will being visiting the truly royal, grand and very over the top, self acclaimed 7 star hotel. Afternoon tea will be  in the sky bar on the 27th floor, 200m above sea level. We will enjoy lots of yummy treats in the sky bar and drink the most expensive glass of Champage (that is included in the price) If you want seconds, it will set you back 30 squid per glass.OUCH.

Be prepared to have our own personal waiter who will supply us with a steady flow of treats and nibbles while we admire the view of the open ocean and the surrounding Dubai.

    
The very high profile Burj Al Arab requires a reservation booking which I will make closer to the time for around Charlotte & Benjamin's 21st Birthday celebrations.
