There was a weather advisory, so at first we just camped out in the hotel room.
I wasn’t about to get wet or blown away.
But then late afternoon, the weather started looking better so Pokin decided we should walk to the Dubai Mall.
The night before, PoOn asked Pokin about the Waldorf stuffed animals.
“What Waldorf stuffed animals?” Pokin asked.
“Just ask front desk,” PoOn said.
So anyway she went up to front desk and told them her sister wanted to know about the Waldorf stuffed animals.
The hotel staff had basically no idea what she was talking about.
“I don’t know,” Pokin said “at the other hotels like Conrad in HK they had these stuffed animal bears.”
“We sometimes have welcome gifts, is that what you want?”
“I have no idea,” Pokin repeated again. “Whatever you find sounds great.”
“We’ll see what they can do,” front desk answers.
Anyway we go to the Dubai mall, walk around, see some sharks, walk around some more, see the Dubai Fountain show, and then head back. I deliberately left Peep behind.
“Peep” he says.
I should have known that Peep always gets himself into trouble. I come back and there’s a party going on in the room.
“What is wrong with you Peep?” I glare.
Peep, says Peep.
And there on the chair is a party full of stuffed animals, none of which are Waldorf stuffies.
Our doorbell rings. It’s Prashant, our housekeeping attendant with a note. “I hope you like the animals,” he said.
Turns out they sent someone out from the hotel to fetch these, because we were asking for them.
I ended up sleeping on the couch while Peep continued to hang out with those pink monsters. Ulgh.
Well PoOn is getting a bounty!
