In about four hours we have to wake up, get ready, check-out, fill our bellies with the hotel's breakfast and then go to the airport. I'm trying to stay up as late as possible so I fall asleep easier on the plane. Evan has just gone to bed and I'm considering ordering pizza... I still have to re-pack my bag. It looks like it is pregnant with 29 toddlers.Uhohh.
In 25 hours, we'll be hovering above Melbourne, getting ready to land. It feels like forever ago that we were in Berlin, Amsterdam and Paris. And Australia. The time has flown though, and while we are looking forward to a bit of a rest when we get back, we could easily have stayed over here for much, much longer. Home sickness? No way.

Anyway, thank you to all of those who have followed our blog throughout the journey. <3
It may lay dormant for a while after we've added a few more posts about this trip, but I'm sure we'll be off again sometime in the future. 

Dubai

Dubai Mall
This shopping mall is insane! It has an underwater zoo/aquarium, waterfall, fountain, theme park, ice skating rink and a ridiculous amount of shops.







I felt so sorry for these LIVE camels in the middle of the mall. So cruel.





Evan had a quick nap before we began our Desert Safari.
Our flight left London at around 10:30pm and arrived in Dubai 7 hours later, so we didn't really get the opportunity to sleep much. 

Tallest building.

This poor guy looked so depressed.




Sand boarding.



More henna body painting. 
 

Bellydancing.




London Day 4- Thames River Cruise + Going Out

Thames River Lunch Cruise







Going Out (with Miles) 






As you can see, we didn't take many photos in London on the fourth day. On the fifth day, we didn't take any! I think it might be because it's practically just a giant sized Melbourne.
