Big Red Bus and Mom

We started our day in front of Marina Mall, a hot spot for fun, food, fashion and the Big Red Tour Bus.

Mom chose the top of the double-decker bus and a cold water bottle from the built in fridge. We plugged in our headset and settled in for the day-long tour of Abu Dhabi island and off-island sites.

Main Sites visited:

Sheikh Zayed Grande Mosque ~ with its Italian marble, hand-made carpet, 1000 columns, fabulous tour guide and magnificent minarets.

We ended the day around 5:30pm informed, enlightened, happy and exhausted.
