At around 8:30 PM local time, Kevin and I landed here in Dubai International Airport. The view from the plane was a bit uninspiring but the airport itself is quite impressive. Aside from a free internet cafe, it is filled with tall palm trees, Indian and Thai restaurants, and a wide variety of stores selling anything from Arabic jewelry to little camel dolls that seem to have no particular use other than letting you say you just bought a little camel doll.
Kevin and I heard that Dubai is known for its Indian and Thai cuisine. As we strolled by the food court we decided to bypass the tempting McArabia burger at Mcdonalds, and instead ate some samosas and curry chicken with rice. It was wonderful but we are going to pay for it later in the men's room. Thank God for cipro. We are going to need it.
I have never felt like such a tourist, and I have been a tourist many times in my life. As soon as Kevin and I were handed our dinners, we rummaged through our backpacks to grab our cameras. We snapped photos of the plate like the paparazzi snaps photos of Lindsay Lohan after she walks out of a rehab center. It made me feel weird doing that, but I just had to capture the pic of the samosa to rub it in Michaela's face when I get home.
In a few hours, we will be en route to Kenya via Kenya Airways. Five hours later, we will finally arrive in Kenya. I hope to keep you all posted once we get there. Thanks very much for reading. Can't wait to see you all when I get back!
