Bye bye Dubai - Day 9

in #travel7 years ago

It's over guys, today is our last day in Dubai.
We enjoy the last hours of relaxation and sunshine and we prepare the baggage for the return trip.

We have the plane at 2:30 AM so we book a taxi at 10 PM, say hello and we leave from our beloved Hotel.
We meet a Pakistan taxi driver, very kind friendly.
He informs us that Dubai has very little oil and lives mostly in tourism, while Abu Dhabi and Qatar are much richer.
We also find that Dubai has only one chief sheikh, that the average salary of workers in the shipyards is about 2000 AED (500 €) and that the average salary of a taxi driver starts at 3000 AED.
From our hotel about 40km, the taxi driver asks us 150 AED, we pay and we go to check in as soon as we could not do it online.
Since we arrived too early we wait more than an hour sitting at the airport. Better get ahead rather than late.
We head to check-in, embark on luggage (at the limit of weight .. My luggage is 10kg heavier than the previous one) and head to the Gate.
Before arriving at the gate, in the duty free zone, there are shops of clocks, perfumes and gold.
I look for the most expensive watch now: a rolex of about 35,000 €. Very expensive but I thought I would find it more expensive sincerely.
Another interesting thing was to see edible gold coated chocolate, and a 1.3kg gold waistcoat.

It is getting late, we head to the gate and board: we expect 6 hours to travel!
Really bad to travel at night .. They gave us the dinner at 3 o'clock am at night! After barely 2 hours of sleep and 6h of trips we arrive at Moscow airport and head to the gate with the next flight to Bologna.
For the record, we went from +40 degrees Dubai to +3 degrees Moscow.
Other 3 hours of travel, this time the plane was little better.. And with breakfast included in the flight.
Obviously you do not sleep, too uncomfortable, fortunately the 3 hours pass fairly fast.
We arrive in Bologna where our friends are waiting for us to go home.
But before we complain to the airport's "lost and found" because we found our luggage destroyed, to be thrown away. Damned Aeroflot!

We are really destroyed, we sort our suitcases and we take a nice day to relax at the sea ... Ah no, we're in Italy at +15 ° C and it's raining...!

I had almost taken the habit. Okay, I was aware that sooner or later it would end, hopefully in another holiday not too far away!
