Dubai, UAE - The Dubai Mall is all that!

Touted as the world's largest mall and entertainment center, the Dubai Mall will hold you hostage for a couple of days if you don't mark the location of the entrance you came in through. That being said, there are worse places in the world in which to be lost. Every store you can think of, including Bloomindgale's and Galeries Lafayette is present here, in addition to a zillion options for eating, playing (ice skating?), and resting (movies?). There are tons of baby stores from Pumpkin Patch to more upscale options (see department stores above). The highlight for Karam was Hamley's, a personal favorite growing up in London. He had a blast, check it out!
