I think you have some confusion on what the Burj Dubai is. You stated:
Leg 8: Kilimanjaro, Tanzania to Dubai, UAE (Season 5)
Season 8 introduced me to the exciting architecture of Dubai. Even finishing up at the would famous Burj Dubai.

Well, there used to be just one Burj Dubai and that was a specific area of Dubai. When the world's largest building went up in Dubai, long after AR5, it was originally named Burj Dubai but since that created havoc it has been renamed Burj Khalifa. Did you possibly mean Burj-al-Arab, the very famous luxury hotel?

Yes, he did. It's easy to get confused when all the famous building names start with "Burj." :lol:
