January visitors

      We had the most amazing time here in Abu Dhabi the past 4 years... One of the things that made this time in our lives so special was being able to share this place with friends and family. I am proud to say our door was always open and we were always happy to show people around. Maybe I will make a post with everyone that has ever visited us here...

     Going back to January, our godparents finally let themselves convinced to come over. It was a big deal as they have never travelled this far from home, some never been on a plane before. We promised them it will be worth it and (I hope) it was!

^^ first up, Emirates Palace ... gorgeous backdrop for pictures (especially at sundown)

^^ the 24k Gold cappuccino is a must try... Once in a lifetime experience!

 ^^ aaahhh... the pre-diet days included burgers the size of my head and huge plates of scrumptious brownies drowned in milky-oreo sauce...
