Here are the TOP 5 things that almost happened in my time in Dubai (both good and bad).

The day after the fair ended, I was commuting in a taxi to Dubai Arabian Horse Stud and we just about had a sideways collision with a bus at 100km/h because the taxi driver failed to stop for a red light. Had this happened, the second half of the trip would have ended much differently. Thank god this did not happen and I was able to safely arrive at Dubai Stud that morning but it gave a real scare and it was an absolutely horrific experience making it there.

The only reason this did not happen is because this event was on the day before the Dubai World Cup and I was busy preparing for the races, otherwise this for sure would have happened.

This is the worlds longest urban zipline, you come down from 170 meters and hit a top speed of 60km/h. This is not a cheap activity to do but I received a great offer and I very much considered it over the Burj Kalifa but I did not go through with it simply because my back started acting up shortly after I arrived in Dubai and it was not worth the risk of aggravating it, otherwise I probably would have done it for the thrill. I am terrified of heights but I have ziplined before and really enjoyed it, though nothing even close to the magnitude that the Dubai Marina zipline offers.

I showed you all what many barns in Dubai look and feel like, I then wanted to show what a tack store in Dubai looks like and their line of products. There are not very many tack stores in Dubai but I wanted to show this one with a tour because they have a very extensive and different product catalog when it comes to horse tack. It's also two floors and it lights up at night.

Though I have taken pictures of what you would find in a dressage show, I have yet to photograph one. I couldn't swing this one because it came in really late and I had already made plans for other things, otherwise this was kept as part of the Plan B.
