The ride home

My favorite part of the day is the ride home. For me it means comfort and peace. Nothing beats family time, TV, internet at home and the me time I have when everyone is asleep. Do you want a joyride? Here is what I see for the past seven and half years…
This is Ramadan time at 7pm so everyone is probably at home having Iftar but usually this road is full.
When I arrived here in Dubai, I think this building was newly built. Until now I don’t know if it’s a museum or an office. Either way I can’t make myself like it.
The Dubai airport always makes me miss Manila. It’s like I want to jump in an airplane and just go home. But not that plane because that is an Airbus A380 and Manila don’t have an airport that can accommodate this ginormous plane.
The very well lit tunnels in Dubai even if it is daytime.
and finally seeing home.
Looking through the pictures I have taken, it looks so lonely. Maybe because its almost nigh time and there is not so much cars around but Dubai is a nice place. We do have traffic jams and we got lots of trees too.

Sharing some layouts

I haven’t shared any of my layouts for a while its because I don’t have any. It’s not really a scrap block, it’s just pure laziness. OK, fine. It’s Plants vs Zombies. I was cleaning out my desktop icons and there it was, THE icon. So, I put back to life the zombies again and its making me stay up late and I hated it. Oh well, I’ll just make an excuse for myself that I need to de-stress.
Anyways, back to the topic of sharing… my layouts. TFL!

Hot and Humid

Summer is at its peak here in Dubai but we are still almost every weekend out of the house. My mother-in-law is here so we try to show her around.

 This is the Atlantis Hotel. It looks very grand but I can’t make myself like the color of the building. This day was so hot (42degrees) and humid (85%) that simply standing is a torture already.
A quick snapshot before going back to the car.
This is the China Court inside Ibn Batuta Mall. This is the only Chinese thing there and me. There is Baskin Robbins, an Italian and Indian Restaurant and IMAX theatre. So if you go here and went looking for a Chinese tea or Feng Shui stuff, this is NOT the place.
I guess things haven’t changed since last year. It’s still always like this when I want to take a picture of two of them together.
That was our weekend. Hoping for a better weather tomorrow. Tata!
