Over the weekend, we took the kids to Souk Madinat Jumeirah for lunch. It’s been a long time since we’ve step out there. Felt almost like a tourist, as we drove over that bridge and watched a group of ladies having their photos taken with the Burj Al Arab behind them. Where were we going? […]

Yes, JW Marriott Hotel’s Indoor ‘Friday Brunch for Everyone’, like a few others (Dusit Thani […]
