Day 0: 2am IST - Butterflies & duty-free dreams

A few butterflies in my stomach, relating to what I'd tell the French customs authorities about where I'm going to be put up.. As long as I have money & a return ticket, they wont really care, I'd presume. But still that nagging thought at the corner of the mind persists - WHAT IF...

Anyways, too excited to sleep.. I'm sure flying Emirates is going to be a pleasurable experience. Hoping that I have good company on both flights! Fingers crossed!

Flight in 7.5 hours.

Dubai. Duty free shopping. What do I (Du)buy?

PS - On a trip across Europe, starting today!! Wuhhhhooooo!!!

  1. Dubai is a huge airport but not quite a great place to shop. Check with emirates twice to ensure that they have served you vegeterian, if you are one. Last time, I didnt quite have a pleasant experience.

  2. Thanks Mrunalini.. Yeah turned out Dubai shopping was a bit hyped.. I'd asked for Veggie meals throughout and the quality from Emirates has been exceptional! Beats Singapore airlines easily!
