Like sunset, our holiday is drifting out of sight, leaving only sublime memories for us to bask in. Our day in Dubai was wonderful: a final opportunity to feel the warm sun on our backs before heading home to winter.  We spent the last evening walking along with beach in the searing heat (yes, still almost 40 degrees in the evening), marvelling at the burgeoning city, where the sky is the limit – literally. Then it was pasta and gelati at Carluccio’s (served only once the cannon had been fired to signify it was Iftar time, it being Ramadan month) and back to the hotel to pack for the flight home.

‘Til next time…
