Geocache Description:

Welcome to Global Village!  It took me longer than it really should have done to find some of Dubai’s gems so I have decided to share a few of them. Some are better than others (obviously) and some will appeal to some more than others.  So this is where that giant ferris wheel that you see when zooming along the E311 or E611 A bit of a trek from Downtown Dubai but quite a place! 


Around the World in 80 Days is a 1956 Technicolor epic action adventure comedy film based on the classic novel of the same name by Jules Verne. Starring, David Niven and Cantinflas, produced by the Michael Todd Company and released by United Artists.

The epic picture was directed by Michael Anderson and produced by Mike Todd. The film's seven-minute-long animated title sequence, shown at the end of the film, was created by award-winning designer Saul Bass.

The film won five Academy Awards, including Best Picture

In 2004 the film was remade.  It stars Jackie Chan, Steve Coogan and Cécile de France.  The film is notable for being Arnold Schwarzenegger's last film before he took a hiatus from acting to become Governor of California.
