Not that Jeff has a problem with that!
Few of the many posh eating outlets, serving surprising affordable food

There is quite an array of marine life in the tank
just like the one we see here
There is quite an assortment of fishes on display
Did I mention there were camel rides too?
On our way back!
Each telling a story of their own
Kudos to our personal bus driver!
Digging the cross linking stairs upwards
