Drinks at Neo, then Dinner

On Friday night we all (Andrew, Del, Ian and Viv) went to drinks at Neo, a bar on the 63rd floor of the Address Hotel, and then ate dinner at the Meat Co, a lovely steak restaurant at the base of the Burj Dubai (the tallest tower in the world).
Ian again took some amazing photos - below you can see just how big the Burj is. Remember this photo is taken from the 63rd floor! Neo is a kind of surreal place, with just astounding views. Ian and Viv also spent some time talking with Mohammed, a local who helpfully told us that Dubai is a nice place to live as long as you have money...
I reckon this is one of the best shots of the Burj I have seen

The pattern in the water is the jets/lights for the fountain show that goes on in the evening. Viv and Ian reckon it is very similar to the show at the Belaggio in Vegas, but the jets might even go slightly higher. A wonderful show, with wonderful music - a pretty special evening



This is The Address. A beautiful hotel inside and out

Do keep trying to find the camel for Viv. We just know how much she secretly wants to ride one. Great photos Ian. I'll bet you are all having a fantastic time
