Winter’s are almost leaving and making way for summer to come in. I hate
summer and would do anything avoid getting out in the sun. The summer in this
part of the world is extremely harsh. The reason why I am cribbing about the
Dubai summer is, once they are here it is almost impossible to do anything
outdoors. So we decided to head to the zoo this weekend before the weather
changes course.
This time we went off to the Emirates Resort Park at Al Bahiya, about 40
mins drive from where I live. It is a much smaller park compared to the Al-Ain
zoo. However, the up-close interaction with animals really elevates the entire
zoo experience. I am sure you would be heard all about the petting zoo concept,
but this was the first time I was experiencing it. Despite the fact I am not an
animal-lover nor zoology was my favourite subject, but this trip might have
turned me into one.
We booked ourselves the zoo facing room, while it’s little more
expensive compared without zoo view, but it was totally worth it! Check out the
early morning sight just outside our room in the video.
