Travel: Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo
The Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo – it’s a must do if you’re in Dubai. Don’t be fooled if you’re in the mall, there is way more to this aquarium than meets the eye. After touring the Burj Khalifa, we headed over to the aquarium and spent about 90 minutes checking out all the creatures. We bought package tickets, so if you plan on seeing both sights, I suggest you do the same. Saved us a total of $55 Canadian. The At The Top tickets…

Travel: Burj Khalifa
Burj Khalifa in Dubai – it’s currently the worlds tallest structure and has held the title since 2009. Wild, eh? We visited on our first day in Dubai – getting a sense of the city from way up high is quite cool.

Travel: Manama Snapshot
Manama snapshot – a couple of days in the capital of Bahrain. Manama is an experience! From World Heritage Sites to some souq eats, we had a blast.

Above you can see us at the fort and there isn’t much hiding from the sun. We visited at high noon and it…
