Although we have been in Abu Dhabi for over a day, we really haven’t seen that much except for the grand mosque, which was the reason we came. But we do have some spectacular views from our 54th floor room, and this is one of them. I found it fascinating that there is an entire manmade island with one single house on it, which can only be accessed by boat.

Since we have done the mosque now, we’re going to get out and try to see a bit more of the city today, and we have actually extended our stay by one day because I really want to visit the Abu Dhabi Falcon Hospital (which gets rave reviews on TripAdvisor and in our guidebook).
