Beth, Ngaire --- I remember reading about that ski place when it opened. What a crazy thing to do that would be! But I don't think my ski boots would work within the 44 lb luggage limit required for the rest of the trip!

And I am NOT wearing rentals. But, seriously, we would love to see it. And I love the HOHO buses idea. Hadn't thought about Dubai having those. Thanks for the input, especially since you both know what we like!
Thanks Ted! The HOHO bus includes a boat ride?! PERFECT!
