I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year's Celebration! And it will be nice to read your posts for PBW!

Well, i am sharing our photos during New Year's Day! Hubby and Zizzy haven't been to Dubai Mall since they came here and so I decided to bring them there on New Year's Day to see the dancing fountain and take a look inside Dubai Mall.

....at the foot of the tallest building in the world....the Burj Khalifa.

It was Hubby's first time to watch the dancing fountain performs and all he can say was that "grabeh ang ganda". He even said that its worth the wait since we came 30 minutes before the first performance.

Then we went inside Dubai Mall to simply look around and took some photos at the large Christmas Tree, outside Dubai Aquarium and watched childrens and adults ice skating at Dubai Ice Rink.

And as we are heading to the Waterfall we noticed a very unique car...a Batman car that appeared at Tim Burton's live-action films Batman in 1989 . This car is owned by a local Emirati car collector, Ahmed Al Attar.

That's all for this time and hope to see you guys again next week...Happy PBW!

The weather now in UAE is the most pleasant and it’s the best time to spend the weekends at the park. And so last Friday we went to the Zabeel Park for a BBQ.

Pork is not permitted in BBQ areas in all Parks in Dubai but if you really want to grill pork like what we used to do before you can bring your own portable charcoal barbeque grill.

Not a well planned picnic...so we just brought a chicken marinated in masala and one big sheri for grilling, rice, spaghetti, fresh vegetables salad, chips and sweets...

Babsy whose always been incharge of grilling..

I should not be eating chicken but it was so yummy and tasty and i can't help but eat...

Here they are...I was the one who took the photos so I was not included hin this photo. From left..Marynel (a friend from our province), Marie (our flatmate), Rechell (my sister), Milet & Leah <---Ate Norie's friend from Zaabel Palace 1, the chubby couple Nadine and Earl Lester.

Later at night we hop on the train that winds around the park and crosses the pedestrian bridge to go to the sounthern part of the park.

It was our first time to ride on this train.

So far we all had a great weekend and hoping to come back next week to visit the Stargate. Hubby had a great time too at his sister's house who came home early morning of Saturday and so drunk..hehehe Wishing you all had a great weekend too..

We by chance are bonded because we share the same room and though we are far away from our love ones, having each other in one house feels like we have our families with us.

But at times that one has to go...either to go home for good or chooses to find her/his luck in other place/country it feels like a family members is leaving us and we don't know if we going to see each other again. I guess that's life...separation is always sad :(

To change the drama when someone goes…we use to have a farewell treat/party at home just like what happened last night. We had a little dinner (compliment of Big Boy) and picture taking before Ate Ayessa left. She lost her job and has to wait for 6 months before she can come back.

 

Pose for the camera before the dinner starts.

Ate Ayessa, second to the left, is leaving us..huhuhu

It's dinner time..

Surelly we will miss her. Hope to see her after few months.

 I was just invited by Sassy Mom last week to join her Pixel Bug Weekend Meme and as a sign of saying "thank you" for the invitation i have joined my two blog..hehehe (nde rin nman masyadong excited)
