We want to do a lot of stuff; we're not in great shape. We didn't get a good night's sleep. We're a little depressed. Coffee solves all these problems in one delightful little cup

Sisterhood and brotherhood

Image
I don’t believe an accident of birth makes people sisters or brothers. It makes them siblings, gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood is a condition people have to work at. ~Maya Angelou

Desert Safari  A visit to the UAE is incomplete without a Desert Safari, is must if you want to experience desert life. It is absolutely safe and thrilling experience which you ever remember. The expert driver (Bilal with me in the pic ) will take you to dunes in a powerful 4 wheel drive and the adrenalin rush you feel makes it all worthful While reaching our Bedouin campsite.

Laxmi Niwas Palace

Image
Laxmi Niwas Palace When you build a palace like none other, not just anyone is invited to stay. Since 1904, only a few have been deemed worthy of a higher order of hospitality – princelings, Europe’s pre-eminent bluebloods, King George V and Queen Mary, a handful of statesmen; a few of the notable architects of history. The world at large had been shut out of the Laxmi Niwas Palace. You may now actually go a step further. Gaze at hand-painted friezes and gold-laden walls. Examine up close the inspiration behind Lutyens’ and Baker’s architectural style. And perhaps reflect on the fact that exclusion does sometimes make a place what it is.
