Morning sunshine, over the marina

We woke up early this morning and decided, let’s go for a cycle while the rest (okay, maybe just some) of the marina is still hungover in bed.

I know a lot of people moan and groan about the traffic, and why anyone would live here.

Despite our own tower being lit up bright on Friday evening just a week ago, we still, surprisingly – love it here.

Here’s a photo blog of the marina and the beach, between 7:30am to 9am on a Saturday morning 🙂

Jogging track, with a few earlybirds. Quite sadly we noticed the track has lots of holes from idiots wearing stilettos. Get off the tracks!

Much appreciation to Emaar for making Dubai Marina a great neighbourhood to live in….. for now 🙂 I just hope that RTA and Emaar can talk to each other a bit more to resolve the traffic problems within the area……. I’m still trying hard to get more bicycle racks installed on the marina boulevard and the walk 😉

Blog post on brekky at Le Paradis French Kitchen, to come 😉

Dubai resident. Stays most of the time in the marina as she can't be bothered going anywhere else after work and in the weekends. Originally from the land of the orang utans, spent the latter half of her life in the land down under. Always on the look out for deals, loves organising get-togethers, and occasionally steals some time for a sip of wine or four at ladies nights.

    1. No worries! 🙂 They were only starting to set things up on Saturday so we didn’t get the chance to see it, gotta head back there sometime this week!
