The Souk Khan Murjan in the Wafi basement
hidden treasures not many people know off
There's a whole array of souks (market) shops here
The escalator twine up the floors
Complete with an eyptian themed stained glass facade!
The big buses operate every 30 minutes here
Our choosen boogie ride for the day
Despite indoor airconditioning, everyone's all outside!
Wafi in all it's glory
Mmm raffles, what are they doing here? :P
The world trade center
The traffic system here in Dubai is rather organised
Visiblity is fairly good today
Offering rather decent photo opportunities
You got to get used to sights of barren land here
except for an occasional boat in the middle of nowhere!
The Jumeirah mosque
The Mercato Mall
Few of the many mosques along Jumeirah
Here we are at the Jumeirah beach park!
The open gardens and greenery before the beach
The park's large main circular floyer
The shack to the beach
The beach is huge!
There's plenty of space for everyone alike
offering views of the distant skyline
These cool water dispensers are a real lifesaver in the heat!
Oh a dolphinarium!
Much to our delight, bus stops in Dubai are all air-conditioned
A button inside activates an exterior bus stopping light for drivers
The Arab gulf and beach from the road
Back on the boogie bus!
Another mosuqe down the street.
And the next highlight of our trip!
twin beach resorts by the beach line
The Al Arab from the Jumeirah beachline
Specifically the Burj Al Arab, a 7 star hotel
The white sandy public beaches
It even has a heli pad on the roof!
And an observation area overlooking the Arabian sea
beside it is the Jumeirah beach hotel
Some of the huge houses by Sufouh Road
Look how long that exterior gate is!
Not too far off is another pretty site...
golden horses, which can only mean...

The horses are Arabian?
