Dubai Diaries: Dancing Fountains

One of the things I noticed in Dubai, even just from the airport, is that Dubai loves a water feature. There was a big waterfall in the airport, when we were coming out of the airport and everywhere else that we went. The most impressive one would have to be the fountain show that takes place outside The Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa (the biggest mall in the world and the tallest building in the world). Throughout the day and night the fountains put on a show to a different song every time and 'dance'. We went at night and the fountains were lit up. Here are a few pictures of other water features and the video of the 'dancing' fountains.

The Garden Centre

Recently me and my mum went to our local garden center for no particular reason other than to just have a look around.  I know that doesn't sound like the most exciting way to spend a sunny saturday afternoon but I love going to the garden center. I think because it's not just about the plants, flowers and other general gardening tools. It's full of inspiration for your home, for crafting, for you pets and much more. You can find some really quaint and quirky things at garden centers, so check out your local one and see what goodies you can find. 

Note: I didn't take my camera so these are just pictures from my phone



Looks like fireworks


This is cute :)
