Lagos and Dubai Photo Diary # 1

I was away for quite sometime - work schedule, study schedule - all blah blah stuff. However I managed to squeeze in a few days of vacation. First to Lagos, Nigeria for a friend's wedding then to Dubai for some me time.

I vlogged (i use that term loosely) while I was away, but I have not had time to edit the footage, so fingers crossed that you see that ever. There are not very many Lagos snapshots I can share (I was attempting the vlogging thing for the most part). Here a part 1 of Dubai snapshot with sprinkles of Lagos.

Wedding Day in Lagos, Nigeria

Food - Plaintain and Liver (Don't knock it until you try it)

More Food

The best street food in Nigeria - Roasted Corn

I went to the market - 1st time in 13 years.


Hello Dubai - Welcome Tea Time at my Hotel.

Heading out to Dinner 

Dubai Museum was across the street from the Hotel.

The Courtyard at the Dubai Museum

Dubai Museum - Make it a priority to visit if you are ever in these part. Great history of the city.

Got sidetracked from Dinner by the Aquarium at the Dubai Mall

More Aquarium - This is another thing to add to your list if you are in Dubai. 

More Aquarium - If you don't want to splurge on the ticket - one side of the aquarium faces the walkway of the mall.

This aquarium is one of the most magnificent things I have ever seen. Pictures do not do it justice.

View from the 124th floor of the World's tallest view - Another thing you must do if you fo to Dubai.

Then you have got to check out the show at the Dubai Fountains - Spectacular. 

The show at the Dubai fountains is free and happens daily. If you are headed to Dubai - Add it to your must see list.
