We’re in Sicily now but I’m still catching up with Dubai posts.

Being in Dubai I wasn’t going to NOT go up the world’s tallest building –  so we took the metro across to Dubai Mall (world’s biggest – 1200 shops!) and eventually found the entrance for Burj Khalifa which is in the basement.  After a trek which tells the story of the building lifts whisk you up to floor 124 in 77 seconds (yes, we’ve been paying attention to various tour spiels! And even on a not so clear afternoon the views are pretty amazing.

Pics to follow when the dodgy internet in our Palermo hotel can cope!
