offering views of the distant skyline
The shack to the beach
The creek side Dhow markets
Gold glitters on every store front
Beats the posh large malls which Dubai is known for
A glass plane is all that seperates sainty and hypothermia
Here we are at the Jumeirah beach park!
Al Qasr means 'The Palace' in Arabian
Back in the festival city, air-conditioning!
Few of the many mosques along Jumeirah
which can snake on for ages!
which links right to the Arabian gulf
The Arab gulf and beach from the road

Storage by the Dhow and creekside, just like traditional times
Another mosuqe down the street.

The Mercato Mall
Much to our delight, bus stops in Dubai are all air-conditioned
And an observation area overlooking the Arabian sea

And is rather extensively used by the locals
Meat from the slab is apparently very popular here
The open gardens and greenery before the beach
And the next highlight of our trip!

A deserted amusement park nearby
There's plenty of space for everyone alike

Back on the boogie bus!
These cool water dispensers are a real lifesaver in the heat!

Yesh! only a dinky 5 stars?
Checking out the heartlander's shopping arcades
