Snow in the middle of the desert! It may be man made and inside of a large spaceship looking capsule, but there is snow! After our not so successful trip to the east coast of the UAE, Will and I decided to spend an afternoon at Ski Dubai. Ski Dubai is an indoor ski resort in the Mall of the Emirates, one of the largest shopping malls in the world. All of the ski gear is provided with your lift ticket and you get two full hours of slope time. The size of the slope is similar to a single slope at Snow Creek in Weston, MO and their is a quad chairlift. The slope was equivalent to a very easy green run without moguls or any sort of bumps. I was surprised at how cold it was. It was very easy to forget that you are in the desert, except that you are inside. Will and I agreed that the two hours was plenty! You can only go down the same exact slop so many times :)
