    My daughter (15 now) would love to visit Dubai. I’m a little afraid, it seems so far away from California (Temecula)… Is it expensive? How much time did you allow to see sights there? Do they speak english there? Your pictures are awesome!

      It’s incredibly safe and can definitely be done on a budget! My biggest bank account breaker was alcohol- cocktails could run $40 a piece! Obviously, that won’t be a concern for your daughter. 😉 Most people speak English since most people living there are from other countries. I was only there for 3 days and managed to see A LOT. A week would be a good amount of time to get a good feel for the city. She can stay in a hostel or inexpensive hotel and take the metro. The main areas are very walkable and taxis are fairly priced. Here’s a good resource for budget hotels/hostels: http://www.hostelworld.com/findabed.php/ChosenCity.Dubai/ChosenCountry.United-Arab-Emirates

  2. Wow! Looks like an out of this world trip in an exciting city 🙂 Dubai looks amazing!

We just returned from a bucket list sailing trip around the British Virgin Islands with @themooringsvacations — and it was an absolute dream come true!

If you aren’t looking for a vacation from the kids but from the cooking, cleaning, and responsibilities of everyday life, this is your sign!

Four moms, four kids, a crewed catamaran with a gourmet chef, a stewardess, and a captain that cook, clean and sail for you during 7 days of adventure, turquoise water, white sanded beaches, and quality time with your friends and little ones—it was heaven!

Check out my story highlight “BVIs ⛵️” for all of the fun from our trip! And stay tuned for an in-depth blog post with tips on sailing with kids + our complete itinerary 🏝️
