My
FAVORITE day!!! On Wednesday we had an absolutely incredible day. From the beginning…
BurjKhalifa – What can I say? It is
stupendous, a prime example of engineering and human ingenuity. This is a perfect example of Dubai striving
to be the biggest and the best at everything.
The tallest building in the world is immediately obvious; it juts out of
the Dubai skyline and towers over all other buildings. The entry had several replicas of Burj
Khalifa, including on made of legos!
There was also a section in commemoration of the filming of Mission
Impossible. Once inside you go through a
people mover and watch a living mural.
It is incredibly vivid! When we
arrived and stepped out the view was absolutely breathtaking! It is surreal to know you are standing above
the clouds. Unfortunately, the day was
hazy so it was the best view possible, but it was still beautiful! And despite the fact that I am very, very, VERY afraid of heights I couldn't but look down and enjoy the fact that I was 124 stories above ground. We took many
pictures, shopped for souvenirs (there is a gold ATM there. REALLY!!) and eventually made our way
downstairs.
