At peace with the desert breeze
which you can never fit into...
The hotel from the river
Views from the top
Sun bathing lazy bums... :p
not to mention niffy energetic catfishes
Tourists not included!
suspension bridge!
Aha!
The displays snake through rather well rainforest themed areas
time to check out the mall!
Back at our hotel in no time! That's all for our Abu Dhabi trip!
Love the calmness of the Corniche
A side effect of being in the sun for too long
the palace hotel blocks
Stag bettles
Taxis constantly honk for your attention when walking roadside
The tower never needs to hide
An aerial view from our vantage knoll
It's essentially an aquarium and mini zoo right in the mall
No man is an island :P
We came over that hill, but it looked so different from here
oh look an oilrig. *kaching* :P
Oh wow!
The view is shaun approved!
Not everyday where you get a desert by your butt
Says the simley too!
Various constrictors in enclosures
It even has a heli pad on the roof!
I don't see any gecko here
Niffy Arabian theming by the bay side
manmade rocks by the bay, like real!
The Medina Jumeirah main promenade
will tned to induce subliminal Prince of Persia climbing urges
complete with it's own giant sail!
The boat takes you over few crossings along the river
The river taxi boarding point
Digging the Eastern Corniche road
The palace in the distant background
The view of the mall atrium
Tranquility at it's best
Roaches
Open air seating areas facing the sea
But first! Lunch!
More pots to keep you all pottery
Diggin the desert sunsets
Inside the compound
Rawr human! feed me!
It's a Bedouin-style Arabic camp, like a desert oasis in the middle of nowhere!
A Squatiniforme or angel shark I reckon?
