How many people have heard of Palm Island?

S@njay · 1 May 2006 at 00:08

I did a search and only one thread came up with Palm Island and David Beckham buying a villa there (then it turned into a football club argument?!!)

Anyway, am i the only one who thinks the island is really cool and amazing?

They did a show on Discovery channel on the island.

Its a huge man made island off the coast of Dubai in the shape of an Palm tree, and is huge!

The proposed developments are amazing, and buildings planned are stunning, i would deffinitely want to go there one day.

Here a link of of the development, is no one else excited?

Man that is opulence - living there would screw with my head

What's the bit labeled 'the world' on the pic at the bottom?

Threads must have got deleted then

I personally think it would be amazing to view whilst flying above, and its a pretty big feat for the construction world.

May I be the first to rather crassly ask whether Madam Palm lives there, perhaps with her five *daughters*?

ironically, it is a bunch of islands shaped like the world, you can buy the countries.

Fun stuff in the Arab Emirates! :cool:

Each country is individually recreated as an island

Gilly · 1 May 2006 at 00:23

Was nothing to do with grammar and everything to do with terminology

lol!

Guess i'l go one handed surfing now over the island, dont think anyone else want to join, no one else loves the island like me.

I have also figured something out..

LOST..the plan crashed on the palm island, and all the machines and noises are the machines making the island.

it all makes sence!
