Meat from the slab is apparently very popular here

Storage by the Dhow and creekside, just like traditional times

The Jumeirah mosque
And an observation area overlooking the Arabian sea
A glass plane is all that seperates sainty and hypothermia
which links right to the Arabian gulf
The creek side Dhow markets

which can snake on for ages!
Another mosuqe down the street.
No wonder, it's the Gold souk!
Strolling down the street shops
Here we are at the Jumeirah beach park!
Much to our delight, bus stops in Dubai are all air-conditioned
The Mercato Mall
Back in the festival city, air-conditioning!
Few of the many mosques along Jumeirah

The Arab gulf and beach from the road

Technology changing with the times

Al Qasr means 'The Palace' in Arabian
There are quite a number of horses leading to the hotel
The notorious creek river taxis

Gold glitters on every store front
Powdered spices, sold in100 grams
But otherwise still traditional Dhows here
offering views of the distant skyline
The shack to the beach
Cool lan gaming centers

The textile parts of the night souk
This marina is connected to the main creek
A marina sits just off the shopping center
