Al-Souk Madinat Jumeirah

Eeeeek, what a great day!

Went to Souk Madinat, 25 minutes via bus transit and added a nice 30 minute walk (longer and I would've melted (it's still 40)!)

I found my Costas (italian coffee chain and tried there new Flat White coffee, sister would call it-fat white coffee!----its so creamy, yeah that's my kinda stuff... and she's so low-fatfoodie!!.......actually toooooo low-fat foodie (plz. ........sshhhh!!!---i lost 5 lbs in a week)

Took some pics with the BB, met some funky italians and spanish people and wandered around the souk (shops). Oh!Vivel Patisserie.........it's been sooo long!!!!!! (most amazing pastry store, there's one in Montreal)

Here's a little slide show of today and some pics from last year (place hasn't changed it's still GORGEOUS). I hope you enjoy and maybe it will add a touch of sunshine to your day.......

I haven't seen so many Bentley's, Rolls Royce, Ferrari's, Lambourghini's and Porsche's in my life.....................i just find it mind boggling.....very very very very expensive metal..............I enjoy driving my Japanese car!!!! But then that's just it.........drive whatever puts a SMILE on your face!
(I can recall driving a beater car in high school ('80 FORD!)---that was the funnest, plus it was pure heavy metal!........except for the time I got stuck at an intersection-green light in the left turn during a winter storm and I had an exam.......good thing I was within 3km of school.....cuz it was the day i also RAN the fastest!)

(Gas is cheap here! come on over and fill up.........................................................)

Take Care, it's light's out for me.......I'm 8 hours ahead of you!

Keep :)
