Day 2: Swim

Nothing better then starting the day with a leisurely dip in the hotel pool! The hotel has a great gym (strictly men only until 9:30am and again after 3pm, otherwise women only!) and great outdoor pool! I never thought I'd be in my speedos in a heated outdoor pool at the start of March! It was a great wake up to this days adventure in Dubai.

I finally got to sleep last night around 5am, to be woken by my phone alarm at 7, again at 7:30 by the room alarm (which I didn't set) and a final time by a hotel employee at 9am. He kept knocking at the door, I answered naked, he just wanted to know how many where sleeping in my room! I don't snore that loud do I?

About to check out of the hotel, check onto the flight in 12 hours time and head off shopping and sightseeing in downtown Dubai.
