The Burj Khalifa


The recently completed Burj Khalifa is the World's tallest building. At 2700 ft high and 160 stories, it makes our 22 nd floor flat seem like ground level. My first parachute jump was 2800 feet, so this building is way up there. It has 59 elevators, can you believe it. I sure was disappointed that the building was closed for repairs, so we weren't able to go up to the observation level on the 124 th floor. I got a friendly Arab man to lay on the ground to take this picture for us, and I got one for him also.
