Default Back From 2015 Vacation - 4 Continents, 5 Countires, 7 Cities and 2 Race Tracks

Okay just got back last Wednesday after being away for 2 Weeks mostly in the middle east with my Buddy from here, but some how ended up being a unplanned world tour. I had booked myself to transit thru Washington DC direct to Dubai so I could hang with my buddy in DC on the way back from Middle East. But weather conditions cancelled my flight twice to get out of Canada. So they ended up rerouting me to Chicago then Frankfurt then Dubai... so I asked for long lay over in both stops which ended up being perfect time to grab Pizza in Chicago and then stop in Frankfurt for full day to see the City. Then got to Dubai few days in relaxing my friend in Dubai told me he is going to Egypt to business asked me and my buddy to come along, we said why the hell not! so off to Cairo for 2 days to see the Pyramids and then back to Dubai. Planned a day to Abu Dhabi to hang out at Yas Marina and see Ferrari World. Left Dubai to spend a day in DC and then back to this Weather

Here are some pictures, Enjoy.

Sorry no pix from Chicago but we did go to downtown to quickly grab some Deep Dish Pizza for lunch and back to the Airport, been to Chicago last Spring twice so we knew our way around, here is some from Frankfurt.











Rhine River was quite cool, until we got to Cairo... lol





Landed in Dubai, my buddy there gave me one his beater, I chose the E92 Cab as my Weapon








first stop, TIMMIES!!!





then bought some gold at the mall and went to get me some Cinnabon





then after cinnabon walked across the foodcourt at the mall to Lambo and ordered me a Aventador... at the mall next to Nike





place of stay at the Burj Khalifa so my buddies new condo on the 33rd floor, 4500 sqft







Car meet!!! all AMG's at the Armani Hotel





while you guys were having snowstorm we had 2 days of Sandstorm





missed Canada soo much, went snowboarding at Mall Of Emirates








then we booked out flights to Cairo and were off to meet my friend there





saw this from the Plane... Yas Marina / Ferrari World





landed in cario and my buddy had a few business cars to choose from, took the CLA





Went to the Khal Al-Khalili Souk at night which has been around for 4500 years and had Chai at El Fishawy which has been open since 1756 and never closed, open 24/7














next day we did a Tour of the Pyramids, was quite impressive











my buddy in the back having a blast on the camel











that night we did a Boat Cruise with Dinner and Belly Dancing on the Nile River... Longest River in the world





next day we went to the Cairo Museum then took the evening flight back to Abu Dhabi / Dubai
