We are looking forward to our trip to Kathmandu, which also includes a twenty-four-hour layover in Dubai. As with any trip such as this, we are excited to see the destination, but aren’t necessarily looking forward to the long flights. This is our first time flying Emirates, so we are interested to compare our experience with other airlines that we have flown. As with all of our trips, we will be taking a lot of photographs and will share all of our experiences after we return.

We have a full day to explore Dubai, which obviously isn’t enough time to see everything that we’d want to see, but the highlights are going to be enjoying a drink at the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. We will also be staying at the Palm Jumeriah, the man-made island that looks like a palm tree. Once we arrive in Kathmandu, we have time to explore the city on our own for a day before taking a couple of tours that will get us out of the city and also take us into the Himalayas. We will also be taking a cooking class and enjoying as much of the culture as possible before returning back home.
