Welcome, and no you don't need to worry about anything, You'll be stamped at immigration for entry for 60 days. Say hi to your girlfriend for me

Actually Ramadan will likely start around the 23rd of Sept. so you'll miss it. Actually there are some very kewl parts of Ramadan as well with the nightly iftar tents but I digress.

If it is your first time here I'd try to do a big bus tour, get a feel for what is going on, go to the museum (should take no more than 10 mins) spend some time on the creek, and do a desert safari.

A lot of people on here have posted some great ideas, feel free to have a look around and see if anything catches your eye. Also sites like www.timeoutdubai.com are worth checking to see what is happening at night.

Good luck and enjoy your time here.
