Fountains from TGI Fridays

The fountains at the bottom of the Burj tower are fantastic. Based on the Belaggio in Vegas but only bigger and better of course. There are a lot of vantage points to watch them from. We chose inside the Dubai Mall at TGI Fridays restaurant outside on the balcony. Good food and a great show. The kids loved them and I tried not to panic as Jaime leant over the balcony rail (note from Andrew - Jaime's head was perhaps just above the balcomy rail - certainly no leaning and no need whatsoever to panic...).

Sometimes they have to delay or even cancel the show, because the water goes so high that if you are sitting in the wrong place, with the wind going the wrong way, you'll get drenched. Was even more of an issue when they weren't filtering the water and were worried about the bacteria levels... all sorted now.



The 3 girls looking on with interest.

We went as a family again the other night to watch them and felt very lucky to live 10 minutes drive from them, able to go and see them whenever we like. The weather at night is now getting to where it's lovely being outside to eat as well.
