Flying Fish and Sun Tans [ Dubai - Day 5 ]

Spent today relaxing around the hotel. We've got into a rhythm now, with breakfast around 9, Pool until 4 or 5 and restaurant hunting shortly after. Went kiyaking around the lagoon again today as it's free and nobody apart from us shares our passion for burning under the sun on a 1-person boat whilst looking for jellyfish.

While we were out in the lagoon a fish jumped over and around the kiyaks. It was only about an inch long but it still caught me by surprise. This fish seemed to be the leader of the fish world because seconds later I was in the centre of a fish rave. There were about 30 fish jumping around me. I felt like the god of the sea being treated to a dance from my fishy slaves even though in reality I remained a skinny kid from England with a patchy tan. Sadly my dear friend the Blobfish was no-where to be seen.
