Picture Perfect - Jumeira Palm & Atlantis

Here are some snapshots of one of the artificial Palm islands we drove into on our trip. Mum and dad have a time-share on this particular palm, called the Jumeira Palm, and on the outer rim framing the central palm trunk and fronds are a string of hotels, one of which we got really close to called Atlantis.

Above is the atlantis hotel and resort.

Left shows the Atlantis themepark mall's Aquarium. The image is a bit dark, but that's because the lighting in this section was dimmed to make the fish tanks 'pop'. Unfortunately it seemed like 80% of the themepark was closed the day we went, probably some dignitary visiting, so we didn't get to go in and check it out. There were some neat piratey themed things too!

The ceiling in the center of the themepark mall was painted with an aquatic theme. Really awesome looking.


Mum and dad coming up the steps just before you go into one of the Jumeira Palm time-share residences. They were showing us the location of the flat and the grounds. Really awesome views from the beach side as seen below.



Roadside snapshot, this is directly in front of the Atlantis hotel pictured above.
