Our First Week.

The rest of the week was spent with Cameron working and me either out exploring or veging out at the Winchester Apartment. We ended up going to the Crown Plaza as Jimmy Barnes was playing in concert there. It was fun - we had dinner there in one of their restaurants before going in for the concert. It was very loud and squashy, but it was a good night out and good to see an Aussie Artist while overseas. On Wednesday Cameron sent me a text saying that the housemate of one of the guys he worked with was leaving Dubai and selling a bedroom suite, if I wanted to take a look at it. I gave her a call and arranged to go over later that afternoon to have a look at it. It was love at first sight (between the bed and I) and I told her we would take it. We would need to get a mattress, because she only had a double mattress on it but it was a queen size bed. We went to one of the shopping centres close to where she lived - which coincidentally was around the corner to the Winchester called Burjuman, so that I could give her the money for it and ended up having coffee in a little cafe called Paul's. I strongly reccommend their apricot tart - just delicious!

We were eating out each night so at least on days when I didn't go out in the day I was still getting out at some stage - there was a Dome at Burjuman, just around the corner, that was fairly reasonable and had decent food so we went there a few times. We were eagerly awaiting the weekend so that we could go and furnish our apartment and then we could move in and get out of the Winchester.
