Dubai (During the Day)

Dubai. Opulence. Man-made spectacular-ness.  Land of extravagance and excess.  Hotels galore, each bigger and badder than the one before.  Unbelievably photogenic.

Things I liked best about daytime Dubai: Consistently gorgeous sky. Breathtaking sunsets. Palm Jumeirah. The uninhabited desert.

View from one side of my friend (and hostess with the mostest's) balcony at Palm Jumeirah.

View from other side of the balcony (yes, seriously).

View while laying out at private pool (infinity pool above the beach on the Arabian sea looking at the Marina skyline).

View from New Year's Day yacht as attendees were jumping in to the sea. 

View during our desert safari (more to come on that).
