Holiday Destination: U.A.E.

Everybody waited with excitement at the airport's waiting area.We're glad to escape for a while from the
cold weather of Belgium.Because we were seated near the vending machines(one behind him with the mannekin pis), Matyu was tempted to keep on pushing the buttons and demanding us for coins.


At last the Etihad airplane arrived.Matyu was too happy to see it from the glass window.It took us few more minutes to be able to embark...good thing they give priorities to passengers with kids so we were able to pass ahead of the rest of the 100+ other passengers.

After 6 hours direct flight we arrived at the Abu Dhabi airport. I took a photo of Matyu at the exit of the gate that leads to this very magnificent work of mosaic art from the floor to the ceiling located at the main waiting area for all outbound passengers....truly amazing for those who love artworks.

And so after a few photos,we went to the immigration passport control and again we were happy to be given a priority pass through the lane for nationals (foreigners with kids are given this advantage).
