Our New Place

Our lovely apartment is finally starting to feel like home!! After so much shopping and decorating and changing things around, we are ready for anyone that would like to come over for a visit :)

But first, here are a couple of pictures I have taken while riding around town!

The "pineapple buildings" that have shades which move and open depending on the sun's location

The Sheikh Zayed bridge

the busy beach during Eid

just a local woman covered head to toe crossing the street

sunset at the St. Regis on Saadiyat Island

the aquarium inside the Dubai Mall

the aquarium full of sharks and sting rays and such

We got our sea shipment in and I spent several days unpacking all our goods from Lagos and all the wedding presents that we had kept in storage in Houston.

shipment arrives!



so many boxes to unpack

all of our lovely wedding presents

And here are a few pics from around the apartment:
