Burj Al Arab


Here is the office inside the room... It has a computer and a printer... ETC
We were upgraded to a TWO bedroom suite! OMG- This place was HUGE... I loved it!
When you step out, the butler knows where you went, they clean up ASAP... We had a BUTLER...!!!??? 
WE really loved this hotel~!

Control your room

This is another way to control your room... And when someone rings the doorbell... Their picture appears on all the TVs and this monitor! Cool huh? And you can just hit a button and the door opens... Why get up?
The Mini Bar... The Bulter during checkout asks what you took from the mini-bar... Gees, I hate being so honest!
Special Edition- We did not open it!
When you first walk in to the Suite.
Up the stairs

Cool... I like this clock projector:)

They provide EVERYTHING here!!! And they turn down your bed, give the men a nail buffer and the women get a hand fan... I love it!
My handsome Hubby!
who wears slippers at a 7 STAR hotel??? Gustavo!
Going to get a couple of drinks at the Skyview Lounge
Dancing fountain... I did not take many pictures because there were SO many tourists in the lobby...
To get in, you have to have a reservation for the hotel or the restaurants. I didn't want to look silly taking photos of everything... We didn't even get to the POOL! LOL. We stayed in the room. Staying a place like this... you NEVER have to leave! They have a private beach, you get free access to the Water park and all the Jumeriah hotels in the area...




You order your breakfast and tell them what time to bring it... And they do!



Bye Bye hotel!!!







This was the remote control... It ran EVERYTHING in the room!

Being Banegas

I wanted to post a couple photos of me and Gustavo on our Honeymoon... I will provide photos of the hotel next and believe me... It was the BEST hotel I have EVER been too! The pictures may not do the place any justice!

 This is the first set of pictures we got together. 
Gustavo and Amber Banegas:)
 In the Lobby
 Breakfast is served!!! (The next morning)
 Looks like he is checking out my RINGS!

 He got me Roses:) That is his hand, Not mine! LMAO
You get a drink when you get to your room... More to follow on those details!
-No NO... It is not a sock in my hair!
 He LOVES the NEWS! They first brought him one in ARABIC!


What a nice CARD! Thank You
  When I was sitting at the bar, I got a rose...
Looking Up

Get back to Work!

For some reason, I expected things to feel different when I got back to work, but EVERYTHING was the same. It was like I had only been gone for one day.

In Sri Lanka, time went by so slow, in America... it flew! I only hope that these next couple of months fly by as well.

Working in Kuwait is like a mixture of The Real World... The Office and a pinch of the Bad Girls Club...
Reality at it's best.

Gustavo makes fun of me because I do NOT keep friends long...
There is a reason for that though...
I honestly believe that loyal and self-less people are hard to find. I try NOT to expect too much from people that way I will never be shocked by their short comings... But that is hard.
Sadly- I have learned that most people are only out for their best interests... While I am not. I do not like people who share my business (more than I do) or people who talk about me behind my back.
You only get one shot... My time is far too valuable.
I hate feeling like I am being used...
I have my own family and they will always come first.
I do not care about being friends on  Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Google Circles, ETC... I care about being a good mother and wife... I run on my own time... That is what grown women do.

That is all of my ranting for now:)
