Our destination for day was Dubai Mall.

Again, we walked to Emirates Mall where we took the metro from Emirates Station to Burj Khalifa Station.

Our second time at Dubai Mall, we set out to catch up on stuff we missed the first time round.

We touched down at the Dubai airport at night but the land transfer was a no-show.

After ~1h plus, the coach pulled up and the guide explained that the original guide met with an accident on the way to the airport.

Day 8 was free & easy till our flight to Dubai.

After a leisurely breakfast, we took to the streets around the hotel.

We left Bolu for Istanbul in the morning.

Our tour of Cappadocia was like an episode of “Honey I Shrunk The Kids”, exploring giant wasp nests at Çavuşin and walking amongst giant mushrooms at Paşabağ.

Part of the group went on the hot air balloon this morning. We opted to skip it partly because of the exorbitant price but mostly due to the fear of heights/ flying.
