6:40 am Dubai time
10 Things I Learned at the Dubai Airport, International Terminal:
1. Toilet seats are heated. We discovered this because we thought the people before us using the toilets just had rather warm behinds.
2. The quiche at "Cosi Cafe" lives up to the cafe's motto, "Life Should be Delicious." Oh, it is.
3. $10 US is exactly 36 dirhams.
4. A McD's Whopper meal costs 23 dirhams.
5. The soap in the restroom smells like melon. Mmmmm.
6. Bagels in Dubai are square. They are called "squagels".
7. The Business Lounge has free internet access and couches. You are not supposed to be there if you are not a member of Business Class.
8. Lobsters still look like lobsters. Electrical outlets, however, do not.
9. The gift shop sells magic lamps, spoons , and placemats. Oh, and a Russian babushka doll set that is instead an Arabian man.
10. Camels are everywhere. (Not real ones...sad.)
Will review this list upon return.
Editor's Note: I wrote this after over 50 hours of travel on about 6 hours of sleep during that entire time...please excuse the madness!
