Pete and I had a couple of important things to do this weekend:
This included trying out the one and only Taco Bell in the UAE (located inside of Dubai Mall). It was kind of a letdown, but I'm glad we tried it anyway. It was a good attempt at getting a little piece of home right here in the Middle East.
The mall also has a really cool multi-storey fountain, a full-sized ice skating rink, and a huge aquarium (and about a million shops)!
We also stopped by Rajab, the tailor where Pete is going to get some suits made. With the exception of the local attire, most of the clothes (and shoes) in this country are not made for someone as tall as Pete, so he has a really tough time finding any ready-made items. He had a couple of suits and dress shirts made for him last year and they turned out wonderfully, so we went back for round two. By the time we leave here, Nasser and Pete will probably become very close friends...
A custom fit!
