Down the creek
Display of traditional Arabian jewellery
Digging the view here of the creek!
Did I mention... cloth?
Did I mention POTS?
Complete with old buildings and a creekside walk
Closeup of the packed market area
Camel riders
Cabs are one of the best ways to get around Dubai
But first, lets checkout the giftshops!
Beached boats.. mmm
Bastakia!
Back on the creek for our next part of the journey!
Back at the Creek!
Arghh! Why doors so small!
Arghh why so many Yachts?
argh we could use higher ceilings!
Arabian stamps, which much a british influence by the east india company
and universities popping out of nowhere.
And off we go!
And I got the best seat on the house!
And falconers
And daily dosmestic life, like in the markets
And coins
And camel butt pointing coffee pots!
and architecture alike
And a funky stairwell to boot!
An open well, with ground water too!
Along Al Seef Road
All in much needed air-conditioned comfort! :)
All board the Dhow Cruise!
Al Bastakiya from the Creek
A visit to the textile Souk!
A view of the heritage spot in the past
A view of the creek from the Dhow
A resonable crowd, but otherwise quiet on most stretches on a hot noon day
A remake of a town walk, with several stores of an era forgone
A mix of old and new boats alike
A high wall and traditiona Arbain wind towers
A hangout in the lower air-conditioned bar areas of the Dhow
A golden cannon is always cooler
A flashed shot in complete darkness
A distant cruise ship
