VICTORY IS OURS! Faisal was nice enough to take this photo of the four of us together, so I returned the favor by taking a photo...

Me alone in front of the hotel. Hahaha. Right after we took all these photos, Biba yet again raised the stakes and was like "Let's all strip down and go SWIMMING!" I was like "Uh, isn't that a bad idea? First of all, we're drunk in a country that frowns upon drinking, second of all, we're trespassing on a five-star hotel's private beach, and third of all, that sign right there clearly says 'No Swimming,' as if all that weren't bad enough, you want us to strip down in a country that totally frowns upon any type of public nudity?" Then we all started hysterically cackling and throwing off our clothes and running into the water.

After wandering around for like 10 minutes, we finally made it down to the beach...and it was so worth it! It's hard to tell from these photos, but the view of the hotel from the beach was incredible!

As we were leaving, we all kept remarking how cool the Burj Al Arab looked at night and finally Biba was like "Let's figure out how to get down to the beach from here and get a closer look at it!"

After saying goodbye to the cheetahs, we left Biba's boss' house, drove right past the tallest hotel in the world, the Burj Al Arab...
