I didn't know they do overwater there but if I think about it I'm not surprised. I can imagine your daughter enjoyed the ride, it's nearly tailored for kids
Yes, she really enjoyed all the space to crawl around and especially the glass floor.

The lagoon pools look really inviting. Too bad you couldn’t swim in it. I’m always nervous walking on glass floors. Whether it’s at the original World Trade Center, Tokyo Tower, or John Hancock Tower, I always feel nervous walking on them!
Thank you, Jaimito Cartero, luckily Hannelie had no qualms with the see-through floor. Yes, she is really growing up now, finally fits her dress I bought for her last year in Dhaka.

Thank you, frogster. Unfortunately you couldn't access the water directly.

I figured it wasn't too far to fall if the glass floor wasn't up to spec.

Great deal btw.
Thanks, magXY, plenty of bargains when they shut the country to visitors.

Many thanks, SanDiego1K. Covid19 has put big dampener on my 2020 travels but has been fun to explore some of the hotels in the Dubai and the UAE for very reasonable rates.

I thought the shot of the crib was a bit of a sunburst effect, not jail
Cheers, Tocsin. Oman airports are supposed to open soon. No word on tourists I don think though.
