It Has Been A Long Hot Summer

Well we have survived the heat of the summer and it is finally starting to cool down. The current temperature is 92 degrees and it feels like fall to me. This summer it was 115 to 120 degrees almost every day and some days the humidity was high so it felt worse. Bill had a chance to do a lot of golfing. One day he golfed at the Emirates Golf Coarse. This is the coarse we see from our balcony. He called me when he was close to our building and I went out and got pictures of him from our balcony. These are pictures from Madinat Jumeriah. It is a complex on the beach with restaurants and shops. You take boats along canals to the different restaurants and clubs. This is a picture of one of the new tram stations. The metro opened Sept 9th. We have not had a chance to ride it yet but plan to soon. These are pictures of old town. There are apartments, hotels, restaurants and the Dubai Mall all set around the Burj Dubai. Our friends Peter and Janet live in these apartments. Video of the new Dubai Metro.
