So last weekend I went with some friends to the overly hyped Dubai Mall. For all my international readers, Dubai Mall is currently the largest shopping mall around - until the mega-ultra-super big mall in Dubailand is finished. We drove over there nice and early on a Friday before the rush came in, so we found a parking spot and headed indoors. As predicted, half the mall is clad in scaffolding and posters of 'Coming Soon' covering up empty shops. One of my friends visited the Aquarium and spewed away money getting into the damn thing, feeding some fish, and then getting a photograph taken. In my opinion fish only belong in two places - the sea or in sushi. The mall also features (wait for it) a Waitrose store, so anyone who's familiar with the franchise will surely feel like they're back in the UK. Now you know you're gay and domestic when you walk by a fashion store and march straight into a friggin supermarket. I wasn't too impressed with Waitrose to be honest - it's nothing like it is back in the UK...there wasn't a drop of wine in there!

I think we managed to see the entire mall in about 2 hours - the highlight of the visit was walking by 'The Waterfall' - which is a three level waterfall featuring naked silver men diving down. So here's another first - the world's gayest water feature...just click below and take a look for yourself!
