Jet Skiing at Dubai Marina With Friends and Family
Tumblr media
Dubai Marina, a stunning waterfront city within a city, is renowned for its opulence, skyscrapers, and lively atmosphere. Among the numerous activities available, jet skiing stands out as a thrilling way to experience the Marina's vibrant waters cape. 
Whether you're planning a group outing or a family adventure, jet skiing at Dubai Marina promises excitement, bonding, and unforgettable memories. Here's a comprehensive guide to making the most of your group jet skiing experience.
Planning a Group Jet Ski Tour at Dubai Marina
Choose the Right Rental Service:
Selecting a reputable provider of Jet Ski Rental in Dubai should be your utmost priority. Look for companies with positive reviews, well-maintained equipment, and professional staff. Jet Ski rental providers like Sea Life Dubai offer packages specifically designed for groups, providing discounts and additional perks.
Schedule Ahead:
To avoid disappointment, especially during peak seasons, book your jet ski tour in Dubai in advance. Group bookings may also require additional coordination, so it’s wise to confirm availability and make reservations early.
Determine the Group Size:
Know the number of participants to ensure there are enough jet skis for everyone. Some companies offer larger jet skis that can accommodate two riders, which is perfect for tandem rides.
Plan Your Route:
Dubai Marina offers stunning views and landmarks such as the Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah, and Atlantis. Plan a route that allows you to take in these sights while ensuring a safe distance from other watercrafts.
Fun Activities to Combine with Your Jet Ski Tour Dubai
Tumblr media
Water Sports:
Complement your jet skiing adventure with other water sports like wakeboarding, flyboarding, or paddleboarding. Watersport rental companies like Sea Life Dubai offer packages that include multiple activities, making it easy to enjoy a full day on the water.
Beach Picnics:
After a thrilling ride, unwind with a picnic at one of Dubai Marina’s pristine beaches. Pack a lunch or take advantage of the numerous waterfront cafes and restaurants offering delicious meals with stunning views.
Marina Walk:
Explore the Marina Walk, a picturesque promenade lined with shops, eateries, and entertainment options. It’s a great place to relax, shop for souvenirs, or grab a bite to eat after jet skiing.
Yacht Cruises:
For a luxurious twist, consider ending your day with a yacht cruise. Many companies offer sunset cruises that provide a relaxing way to enjoy the Marina’s beauty and skyline from the water.
Safety Considerations for Group Rides
Briefing and Training:
Ensure everyone in your group attends the safety briefing provided by the rental company. Even if some members are experienced jet skiers, it’s essential to understand local regulations and guidelines.
Use of Safety Gear:
Life jackets are a must for all riders, regardless of swimming ability. Helmets and other protective gear can also enhance safety, especially for younger riders.
Follow the Leader:
Designate an experienced rider or a guide from the rental service to lead the group. This helps keep everyone on the same route and ensures that no one gets lost or separated.
Observe Speed Limits:
Adhere to speed limits and maintain a safe distance from other watercraft. The excitement of jet skiing can sometimes lead to reckless behavior, but safety should always come first.
Making Memories and Capturing the Fun
Tumblr media
Waterproof Cameras:
Bring along waterproof cameras or GoPros to capture the excitement. Mount them on your jet ski or wear them to record your adventure from a first-person perspective.
Social Media:
Share your adventure on social media to relive the memories and inspire others to try jet skiing. Use hashtags and tag locations to connect with other adventurers.
Group Photos:
Don’t forget to take group photos before and after your ride. These make for great mementos and can be framed or compiled into a photo album.

NASA Inspires Your Crafty Creations for World Embroidery Day
It’s amazing what you can do with a little needle and thread! For #WorldEmbroideryDay, we asked what NASA imagery inspired you. You responded with a variety of embroidered creations, highlighting our different areas of study.
Here’s what we found:
Webb’s Carina Nebula
Tumblr media
Wendy Edwards, a project coordinator with Earth Science Data Systems at NASA, created this embroidered piece inspired by Webb’s Carina Nebula image. Captured in infrared light, this image revealed for the first time previously invisible areas of star birth. Credit: Wendy Edwards, NASA. Pattern credit: Clare Bray, Climbing Goat Designs
Wendy Edwards, a project coordinator with Earth Science Data Systems at NASA, first learned cross stitch in middle school where she had to pick rotating electives and cross stitch/embroidery was one of the options.  “When I look up to the stars and think about how incredibly, incomprehensibly big it is out there in the universe, I’m reminded that the universe isn’t ‘out there’ at all. We’re in it,” she said. Her latest piece focused on Webb’s image release of the Carina Nebula. The image showcased the telescope’s ability to peer through cosmic dust, shedding new light on how stars form.
Ocean Color Imagery: Exploring the North Caspian Sea
Tumblr media
Danielle Currie of Satellite Stitches created a piece inspired by the Caspian Sea, taken by NASA’s ocean color satellites. Credit: Danielle Currie/Satellite Stitches
Danielle Currie is an environmental professional who resides in New Brunswick, Canada. She began embroidering at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic as a hobby to take her mind off the stress of the unknown. Danielle’s piece is titled “46.69, 50.43,” named after the coordinates of the area of the northern Caspian Sea captured by LandSat8 in 2019.

Two Hubble Images of the Pillars of Creation, 1995 and 2015
Tumblr media
Melissa Cole of Star Stuff Stitching created an embroidery piece based on the Hubble image Pillars of Creation released in 1995. Credit: Melissa Cole, Star Stuff Stitching
Melissa Cole is an award-winning fiber artist from Philadelphia, PA, USA, inspired by the beauty and vastness of the universe. They began creating their own cross stitch patterns at 14, while living with their grandparents in rural Michigan, using colored pencils and graph paper.  The Pillars of Creation (Eagle Nebula, M16), released by the Hubble Telescope in 1995 when Melissa was just 11 years old, captured the imagination of a young person in a rural, religious setting, with limited access to science education.
Tumblr media
Lauren Wright Vartanian of the shop Neurons and Nebulas created this piece inspired by the Hubble Space Telescope’s 2015 25th anniversary re-capture of the Pillars of Creation. Credit:  Lauren Wright Vartanian, Neurons and Nebulas
Lauren Wright Vartanian of Guelph, Ontario Canada considers herself a huge space nerd. She’s a multidisciplinary artist who took up hand sewing after the birth of her daughter. She’s currently working on the illustrations for a science themed alphabet book, made entirely out of textile art. It is being published by Firefly Books and comes out in the fall of 2024. Lauren said she was enamored by the original Pillars image released by Hubble in 1995. When Hubble released a higher resolution capture in 2015, she fell in love even further! This is her tribute to those well-known images.
James Webb Telescope Captures Pillars of Creation
Tumblr media
Darci Lenker of Darci Lenker Art, created a rectangular version of Webb’s Pillars of Creation. Credit:  Darci Lenker of Darci Lenker Art
Darci Lenker of Norman, Oklahoma started embroidery in college more than 20 years ago, but mainly only used it as an embellishment for her other fiber works. In 2015, she started a daily embroidery project where she planned to do one one-inch circle of embroidery every day for a year.  She did a collection of miniature thread painted galaxies and nebulas for Science Museum Oklahoma in 2019. Lenker said she had previously embroidered the Hubble Telescope’s image of Pillars of Creation and was excited to see the new Webb Telescope image of the same thing. Lenker could not wait to stitch the same piece with bolder, more vivid colors.
Milky Way
Tumblr media
Darci Lenker of Darci Lenker Art was inspired by NASA’s imaging of the Milky Way Galaxy. Credit: Darci Lenker
In this piece, Lenker became inspired by the Milky Way Galaxy, which is organized into spiral arms of giant stars that illuminate interstellar gas and dust. The Sun is in a finger called the Orion Spur.
The Cosmic Microwave Background
Tumblr media
This image shows an embroidery design based on the cosmic microwave background, created by Jessica Campbell, who runs Astrostitches. Inside a tan wooden frame, a colorful oval is stitched onto a black background in shades of blue, green, yellow, and a little bit of red. Credit: Jessica Campbell/ Astrostitches
Jessica Campbell obtained her PhD in astrophysics from the University of Toronto studying interstellar dust and magnetic fields in the Milky Way Galaxy. Jessica promptly taught herself how to cross-stitch in March 2020 and has since enjoyed turning astronomical observations into realistic cross-stitches. Her piece was inspired by the cosmic microwave background, which displays the oldest light in the universe.

GISSTEMP: NASA’s Yearly Temperature Release
Tumblr media
Katy Mersmann, a NASA social media specialist, created this embroidered piece based on NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) global annual temperature record. Earth’s average surface temperature in 2020 tied with 2016 as the warmest year on record. Credit: Katy Mersmann, NASA
Katy Mersmann is a social media specialist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. She started embroidering when she was in graduate school. Many of her pieces are inspired by her work as a communicator. With climate data in particular, she was inspired by the researchers who are doing the work to understand how the planet is changing. The GISTEMP piece above is based on a data visualization of 2020 global temperature anomalies, still currently tied for the warmest year on record.
In addition to embroidery, NASA continues to inspire art in all forms. Check out other creative takes with Landsat Crafts and the James Webb Space telescope public art gallery.

Lucifer created his own rose bush right ... did he do it by cross pollination/breeding roses or did he use magic?
Because in one hand, aww cute Luci likes roses and made his own out of his magic.
Or the other hand
Lucifer is a huge fucking plant nerd and loves gardening and is a plant dad/mom and that is even fucking cuter

Bullaun ('Bowl') Pre-Christian Stone, Newton Stewart Museum, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland
Found in a field near Kirkcowan, south-west of Newton Stewart.
Bullaun stones are found in Ireland and Baltic countries and are thought to be pre-Christian, but are also seen outside churches. White quartz pebbles, incised with crosses, have been found in some examples.
The water in the bowl was considered to have healing properties. Some bullauns may have been used as grinding stones.

Psa that your witchcraft is tailor made to you. You can obviously adopt practices from others that you like, but your craft is your own. It can be as messy or as organized as you need/want. It can be inconsistent as fuck, or scheduled. Never feel bad for the way you practice. Witchcraft is meant to be tailored to each individual
