Kissing on the 146th Floor of the Burj Khaifa


The Burj Khalifa is located in Dubai. Presently, it is the tallest tower in the world. Visitors are allowed to the 146th floor for a fee of 100 AED (about $25). The floor is partly open to the inclement weather. In winter, it can get pretty cold there. If it starts to rain, the charm of being on this floor is greatly increased. The covered portion houses coffee shops and snack counters.
I last visited the tower in January, a few months back. I took my English girlfriend who is a teacher here, up the tower at night. The tower is open on a 24-hour basis. We had just entered the uncovered porch when it began to rain. In addition, a cold wind blew and it ended with us hugging each other for warmth. Frankly, it was fun and then we kissed with the cold wind blowing and rain falling. How exhilarating it was with the rain and the tongue of my girl enmeshed together.Down below we could see the lights of Dubai. It was a magical moment, never to be forgotten. A tap on the shoulder brought us back to reality. A security guard stood with an umbrella and he whispered “Sir, no kissing. It's not allowed”. I will say we were lucky as people have been put behind bars for less.
