A Happy Birthday

I've had a good day celebrating my birthday...from morning til night!

 

A Birthday fruit plate/fruit cake!!!  It started with a celebration at breakfast with a group of friends....

And ended with a flame grilled PERi-PERi chicken dinner at Nando's with Andy.  We shared a slice of chocolate nut tort with Nutella.  Yum!

 

As you can see, we are out on the patio!

 

Our servers sang Happy Birthday to me and were delighted to pose for a picture!

 

Andy looked on while I got the first bite!

We left around lunch time and went to the beautiful large Creek Park in Dubai...it's the closest we have come to a hike!

 

 

 

Lots of people rented these little cars and paddled around the Park.  These little girls were happy to pose.

 

Rings of Friendship...

 

The interesting and pretty Banyan Tree...

 

 

 

 

 

Water taxis with the floating bridge in the background...

 

Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club...

 

 

This was our view as we ate dinner outside on the patio at Nando's.

 

The Festival City Mall has just opened their new canal front renovation this week.  It's beautiful!

 

 

 

Can you see the world's tallest tower in the background?

 

They added a Fire, Light, and Water show!

 

 

Fountains, music, water, lights, and now holograms and bubbles did their magic on the hour and half hour all evening.
