Dubai

Compared to yesterdays 14 hour marathon flight, todays 7 hour flight only seems half as long. To start, a big thanks to riley for driving us to the airport at 330am. We are sort of wondering if he has made it home yet. The first flight was good, and i showed the family gene pool by eating everything. I didnt sleep at all so food was my sleep. I went 24 hours without sleep. Got to dubai and found out how good sydney customs is. From arrival to hotel took 2.5 hours. Of course we get to the hotel and only get 25 minutes until the lunch buffet closed. Once again, thankyou gene pool. From there it was a short walk to the metro and 30 minutes to the Emirates Mall. It was big beyond imagination but give me Westfield Liverpool anyday. All we got was something for Jeremy, the son who chose sleep over being a taxi service. We decided that our ailing backs would not handle the indoor ski slope so headed back to the hotel to our next free buffet. Mealed up and desserted up we finally got some sleep. About 7 hours was much appreciated before we got our 430am wake up call. For those of you who are Seinfeld trained........just got hot hand towel so more food is imminent. Hope i get the morrocan, but being down the back of the plane means i might get what's left........back to Seinfeld. Well the shower head was huge and the force nearly threw me through the wall. Annette is currently sleeping. Would it be bad to let her sleep and eat her meal? After she told me that we could have upgraded for only a fraction of what a year at uni would cost, i am leaning toward eating her meal. I guess when she reads this i will be in trouble. Dubai airport was massive. Probably still is. Didnt take long to find the hot chocolate though. I had a caramel frozen yoghurt . Damn it was only biscuits and a drink. Annette is awake and hydrating and biscuiting 2hours 52 minutes to Barcelona. Time for a movie, coke light and savoury bikkies. Wish i knew how the 49ers went
