On our fourth and final day in Dubai, we went to breakfast and a swim before finishing off the packing, vacating our room at 12 and storing our luggage at reception to be collected later in the day. Click here to read more

Day 3 in Dubai started again with a nice breakfast and a nice dip in the pool, before we set off (at Adam’s request) to the Burj Khalifa. Adam has been talking about this for the past few weeks wanting to go to the tallest building in the world whilst we were in Dubai (it has 163 floors), as well as seeing the world’s best 7 star hotel the Burj Al Arab (he got pictures of that yesterday). So off we went; back through the hotel, through the Mall, and onto the Metro. We got off at the Dubai Mall stop and back into the mall. Click here to read more
The second day of our trip started off a little later than planned after a layin! We all slept well in 2 different rooms, given the choices of hotels offering 6 people per room versus cost (and Dad’s tightness) anything other than 2 rooms was a no-go. But to be honest the Premier Inn was brilliant (£347.92 for 3 nights x2 rooms including breakfast!). Like in the UK only adults pay for breakfast and the children eat free. Breakfast was very good and there were lots of choices, due to local beliefs I think it’s the first time we have had chicken sausages and beef bacon……not bad. Click here to read more
We boarded the train in Lincoln at 730am the morning after the Little Rockers broke up for the school holiday, Dad’s 5-year final large holiday adventure was go……the flight was good (although 24 hours before departure our flight was changed to Gatwick from Stansted so a quick rebook of our train tickets for £88 and we were on our way).
