Well finally left Italy and what am i eating in AbuDhabi? PIZZA!!! All i can think of is that i am just tired of flying and waiting around airports. Not much to say about today except that the taxi driver picked me up at the hotel and we walked for 10 minutes until we got to the taxi. He took my bags thank goodness. Caught flight which either left early or i had had a nanna nap in the waiting area!!! Remembering what a nightmare flight it was from AbuDhabi to Venice a month earlier i opted for an upgrade to a comfy seat. Need not of bothered as the plane was only 1/4 full so there was plenty of room to spread out! Got through AbuDhabi airport and customs ok and got a taxi to Radisson Blu Hotel on Yas Island which is quite specky. Felt like a movie star as 4 porters took my luggage and i just waltzed through. They certainly know how to make you feel special nothing is too much trouble. Room is great and i just dumped my bags and headed to the nearest restaurant in the hotel. View from my balcony is lovely. Temperature is over 38 degrees and it was quite dark when we arrived, different ftom Glasgow which was still light at 10.30. Air is very thick but not humid. Views from the taxi were amazing and i just know that 1 full day here will not be nearly enough. I cancelled my desert trip because i knew there was not enough time. Cant wait till tomorrow shame about the heat but!
