Dubai World Cup!

The Dubai World Cup is the world richest horse race with a pot of $6,000,000 for the winner. Of course, most of the people who go to the races go there for the social aspect rather than the race itself. It is a pretty cool event! There are competitions for best dressed couple, best dressed man, best dressed woman etc, with the winners taking up to $5,000 each!


The lines to get into the race was ridiculous. Some people waited in line for 2 hours, while I had to wait in line 'only' 45 mins because we cut the line, it was still bloody hot standing there in the sun with our suits and boots.


The track!

Man, I'm sure glad we left early, cos otherwise we would have been one of the 20,000 people waiting at the Nad Al Sheba race course for a dang Taxi! Got out of there in the nick of time!
