Having arrived at Dubai’s biggest airport in the world at 3 am, we decided to sleep in.
This morning we strolled around the old town, looked at all the amazing buildings and ended up at Dubai mall.
But the highlight of the day was to go to the new opera and enjoy the musical ‘Cats’. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical has enchanted over 73 million people … now I know why…The new opera house is also worth seeing and will become without a doubt as famous as the Sydney opera house. The design of the Dubai opera takes its inspiration from the traditional sailing vessels of the Arabian Gulf, the classic wooden dhows that are synonymous with the world-famous Dubai Creek.
