Or at least it was when we were there - they build things so quickly they're probably all finished by now! Exhausted after a long day of water-sliding and cheetah-fang-touching in the hot Dubai sun, after taking these pics, we all turned in for a pre-dinner nap!
...their totally insane view of the man-made Dubai Marina! Stunning, right?
See all those buildings across the water? See how there are like 30 or 40 buildings that are each like 40 or 50 stories tall? Philip and Bernadette blew our minds when they told us that when they'd moved into their apartment about eighteen months ago there was only desert across the water from them! Every single one of those buildings you see sprung up in just eighteen months! That's pretty much Dubai in a nutshell.
And because the weather in Dubai is too hot for construction work during the day, all the construction work is done at night! Here's a shot I took of a nearby apartment building that was being worked on!
