Jeremy and I were in Abu Dhabi courtesy of Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority who were kind enough (and rich enough) to put us up at Emirates ohh-la-la Palace Hotel. We were spoilt rotten in the hotel and feel right at home with the room service, turn down service, turn up service, turn left service, chocolates delivery before bed time, water delivery before bed time and browsing through the pillow menu!
You name it – they have got it. Hard, soft, firm, down feather, gold feather, chicken feather, goose feather, coconut husk, Japanese bean husk, slimming pillow, relaxing pillow, hard as nail pillow… the list goes on. Ok – I made most of it up BUT they did have a pillow menu.
They also have some fancy-smancy-touch-screen-gizmo that controls just about everything in the room except the temperature of the mini fridge.
So it was a sad day when Jeremy and I had to pack our bags and leave.. so we decide to make ease our sadness by bringing back a piece of Emirates Palace.. 3 boxes of chocolates (we might get hungry), 2 bottles of water (we might get thirsty), laundry bag (we have dirty clothes), shower gel (we might want to shower on the plane) and little what nots… shame that we couldn’t fit the 56” plasma TV in our suitcase. That would have made us feel a whole lot better!
A picture of Heaven at night...Looks grainy? It's cos my smarty pants hubby brought his fantastic camera but left the batteries behind.. so all the pics are taken with camera phone
A little bit of sunshine and POOL before we head back to dreary weather. I swam a total of FOUR x 20m laps.. hahaha enough for the year!
Fancy smanzy gadget...
What Heaven looks like...
