Last Night with Nan & Pops

For Bob & Gayle's last night we decided to go big...or more specifically go high.

We started - At the Top! With a trip to the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa - the world's tallest building. Gayle decided that Bloomingdales was more to her liking, while Bob, Jeff and I went up. It is a new must-do for our visitors.

We took in a few Dubai Fountain shows -world's largest fountains - then headed to NEOS for a pre-dinner drink. Seemed a little low, given it was only on the 63rd floor of the Address hotel.

Lastly, we enjoyed a great Thai meal at the Mango Tree, taking in more of the Dubai Fountain shows. We hope that it was as memorable of a last night for Nan & Pops...as it was for us.

This is going to be a long ride up.

Can't get enough of the Dubai Fountains.

Suckers for the souvenirs.
