    A Postcard From Dubai, Day 3, A Dubai Sunset

    28th August 2016

    A Postcard From Dubai, Day 3, A Dubai Sunset

    Today has been another wonderful day here in Dubai.  And here is my little postcard from Dubai. 

    I am a rubbish travel blogger as I fall in love with everywhere I go. But what a wonderful exciting world we live in. There are so many places to see. What I can’t believe, the question I keep asking myself is; why on earth have we not been here before.It is the most stunning place that really does have everything all in one place. The food and service are exceptional. And the people are truly beautiful.

    Today we spent the morning chilling by the pool and the afternoon at Sega Planet and The Dubai Aquarium. Joe loved Sega Republic; he was a bit like a child in a sweet shop.

    And the Aquarium although not as big as I expected was beautiful. They have such a wonderful collection of fish. My favourite being the Jelly Fish they were mesmerizing.  I managed to give the king crock a wide berth too as this is my biggest phobia. I can’t even look at them so managed to navigate past with my hands over my eyes. The boys on the other hand spent ages marveling at it! In fact they were thrilled to have seen it.

    We finished our day at the most wonderful restaurant.

    Aprons and Hammers is an incredible shellfish restaurant down by the beach,  and wow it was sooooo good. I love shellfish so this was the perfect restaurant for me and the team were just adorable, all such lovely people. We haven’t had a bad meal yet! But I will share all about the amazing food soon.

    For my Sunday photo today I want to share this gorgeous Dubai sunset I caught tonight. It is slightly hazy as I had just jumped out of an air-conditioned car and run to get the pic. It was so hot my camera steamed up. But just a quick note on the heat, although it is hot hot hot, it is a manageable heat. It is not sticky at all, more of a dry heat, which is easer to walk about in. And much better if like me you have mega frizzy hair, my hair has not frizzed once and that never happens normally. That’s a big deal for someone like me with mega curly hair.

    • It’s that time of year again when we need to get those summer legs ready. And if you choose the smooth  option then there are so many hair removal methods available on the market. For me I find a long and short term solution necessary. Epilating slows down and thins hair growth whilst having a razor to take on my travels keeps my legs smooth in between epilating. Add to that a great exfoliator and moisturiser and woohooo I am summer ready. I used to make so many mistakes when I was younger but now I know Its all in the preparation and quality hair removal products.  Bring on the holidays 🚢🍍☀️🛫💕🏖 #BraunBeauty #ad #BeautifullySmooth @gillettevenus
    • Today is going to be a day of packing and preparation as tomorrow I set off to Southampton to fly to Germany to check out @norwegiancruiseline newest ship the Norwegian Bliss which looks incredible for families. Excited is an understatement. Keep an eye on @cruisingkidsuk stories to get a peek at the 🚢

    • If you have been to Florence you will know the street art is pretty spectacular. Today I will be sharing some of my favourite pieces over on the blog. And if you do visit Florence make sure you put aside some time to hunt it all down. Trust me it’s worth the time. The perfect port day activity.
    • Woohoo there are signs of spring in the air at last and my holidays are fast approaching. This week I have completed our online cruise check-in so exciting . I have also been organising my summer lingerie. Lovely bright whites and nudes to go under my summer dresses. I did go to a store to try some on but realised once you have worn @fantasie_lingerie and @wacoaleurope there is no going back, nothing else is good enough. Or fits so well ! But you know what there is so much choice that I could never tire of buying pretty lingerie💗 #ad
    • Yesterday we spent the evening in Liverpool watching Disney On Ice with wonderful friends.it’s been a few years since our last Disney On Ice trip and it was every bit as magical. As was the lovely evening we spent enjoying dinner and a wander in Liverpool 💗
    • The first time I clapped eyes on the river Arno in Florence it blew me away. And that is what I love about exploringa new city. Beautiful sights like this. It is rumoured that when Michelangelo carved David he was intended to be placed high on the hill! Thank goodness they kept him in in the city💗

    • All the hearts for this Elemis special value set that is being launched on @qvcbeauty on Tuesday for less than £60 what a blooming bargain! I am totally in love with all the products but the real heroes from this set are the Overnight Matrix and the total glow bronzer they are incredible for smoothing fine lines and giving the skin a glow. I have also loved getting my body summer ready with the Frangipani body products woohoo not long now till my summer adventures. #ad
