Day 1: Arrive by plane into Abu Dhabi and arrived late am and had our hotel servic pick us up.

-We stayed at the Ritz-Carlton

-This will cost at around $400.00 a night starting

-We choos this hotel beucause of the location. It was away from things but close to what we wanted to see

-The hotel was so amazing!! So very classy and decorated with so much class. The pool was amazing and near water so they had a a little man made beach. The beach had water that was so clear and blue.

-We had reservations at the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque! This is a must not miss!!

-Everything is in white and it is the most beautiful site you have ever seen.

-Women must be covered and met must wear pants. 

-It is a lot of walking to get to the point where you start exploring but its not terrible.

-Be sure to reserve your tickets a few months in advance

-It is only about $25.00 per person

-It took us around 3 hours to see all of it.

-Dinner we ate at our hotel being it had a bar by the pool that served bar food. Which was great and it was different bar food then what we have in America. 

Day 2: This was the best day ever!

-We took a full day and night Sand Dunn excersion! They picked us up at our hotel and dropped us back off at our hotel.

-The most amazing thing you can do! It cost about $175.00 a person but you get so much out of it!

-We took a 2 hour jeep ride in the sand up hills, down hills, stopped to take picture on the sand showed us how they took air out of the tiers in order to go in the sand.

-After jeep riding they took us way into the sand where we rode camels!

-After Camel riding they took us into a place that was set up for dinner on the sand and under the stars! We ate local food and sat on the ground and watched belly dancers perform for us.

-When they dropped us off at the hotel at night we would walk around the property becuase you could see the Mosque lit up in Blue! It was the most beautiful site!

Day 3: Our last afternoon here

Activities: We go tup early becuase we had High Tea set at the Observation Deck At 300

 -$150.00 a person but you each got your own tier of pastries and snack food and it also cam with champagne.

-The service was amzing, the views from all the way at the top were unreal! Our table over looked the water so we had a view all the way at the top of the entire world!

-Make reservations a few weeks in advance becuase you will not just walk in and get in.
