We got up and decided we would walk to the Burj Khalifa which is the tallest building in the World. This was a mistake since they are doing so much construction around Dubai. It took forever to get there. It is really neat. We took a high speed elevator which got us to the 124th floor in 90 seconds. We spent some time on the observation deck, I was disappointed that we couldn't see the palm island because it was a little hazy. We were able to see the Burj Al Arab, and the World islands though.
We spent some time in the Dubai Mall having lunch and looking around. It is the biggest Mall I have ever seen. We spent 2 days there and probably still missed a lot of it. After lunch we decided to go swim in the Persian Gulf. It was not what I expected. It was just your average beach, including Jelly Fish. One interesting thing was that the women swim fully covered from head to ankles. You could tell the tourists because they were the ones in their bikinis.
