On Wednesday, Jon took the day off, and we loaded up on sunscreen and headed to the Palm Jumeirah. Water meets wonder at the Atlantis resort on the Palm. It is a "mammoth" place with a HUGE water park. We got passes for the water park and hit the slides!! We raced down slides through shark-filled waters, took on the waves of the torrent, and three of us (Jon said no way in H*&&) did the vertical "leap of faith!"...90 feet high... All I have to say is, Oh, my!! Didn't lose our tops but about crapped our pants!! It was an amazing view up on the top of the Ziggurat and Jill got some great photos. Fayth enjoyed meeting and holding a falcon. She kept saying, "bye birdie" and didn't want to leave him. Then she blew kisses to the fishes and sharks and said, "bye bye...be back later." It was an overcast day and perfect weather for the water park. We stayed six hours and Fayth was such a good girl. She didn't take a nap and was perfect the whole time. We weren't in the car 30 seconds on our way home and she passed out. I can't wait to go back...we need to save our dirhams though, it is quite an expensive day out!
