From Moscow flew a / on Emirates for the first time on the biggest cruise ship in the world Airbus A380. Always climbing aboard foreign airlines - Emirates, Singapore, Lufthansa, etc. in my soul calm. Hopefully, someday, our children will feel the same feeling, sitting on the board of Russian airlines ...... go to the salon .... This passenger, probably also flew for the first time on such a plane .



2. At the entrance to the salon meet. Generally, the staff and stewards stewardesses on the flight - some universal pandemonium races and peoples! From the report on the aircraft it is clear that the team of stewards may serve passengers in 15 languages! Smile ......



Seated on his seat (48C). In a multi-see greetings. Right at the bottom on-line broadcast from a camera mounted on the rear of the plane. Even you can choose the camera under the belly of the aircraft.

11. Well, we fly pleasant thing - if you are flying at night - there's your night sky directly overhead - in the ceiling)))). Damn ... like anything special, but so fascinating ....



12. Flight to Dubai passed unnoticed. Food - tasty. And you choose from a menu of pre-provided to you. As for alcohol - without any problems, all for free and in unlimited quantity. You name it, but from what I saw - whiskey - grades 6, cognac - 5, the wine - red, white, champagne, all kinds of juices, water, milk, coffee, tea ... .prichem bring all this on a simple flick of the wrist ... I very strong in the flights do not drink. Maybe, dry red wine serving - other blood thinners))) And if alcohol is reluctant - then aspirin .... Well, now approaches. At the bottom of the night in Dubai.



The hotel, as expected - excellent, 5 stars ... Elevator. 19 floor. Room - huge ... .Not know exactly what yardage, but 100 square meters - just ... more were only bungalows in Cancun (Mexico) ... For example, part of the bathroom (not included in the frame, and other shower toilets with bidet)

42 years ago on the site of Dubai was a desert. People rode on camels and donkeys, have lived on the sand .... Who of you was in Dubai in recent years, saw that the Arabs have done on their own land, that is, sand)))
This is a bus stop. I went inside - on the wall of the telly with a timetable. Powered air conditioning. Incidentally, such pavilions at each stop of two. Probably, for men and women separately.



Dubai is full of machines. There are very old and brand-new. Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Lamborghini and other "Porshakov with Mustang" - in the order of things. But I do not see any hybrid car may just past the eye was .... Self drive a hybrid, so always pay attention to them
