The palace in the distant background
The Medina Jumeirah main promenade
But first! Lunch!
The front ticketing area
The river taxi boarding point
Open air seating areas facing the sea
It even has a heli pad on the roof!
the palace hotel blocks
The view is shaun approved!
The boat takes you over few crossings along the river
manmade rocks by the bay, like real!
Taxis constantly honk for your attention when walking roadside
No man is an island :P
The Mall of the Emirates!
Tourists not included!
The tower never needs to hide
The hotel from the river
time to check out the mall!
Not too far off is another pretty site...
Wacky architecture by the creekside

The marina-side walk
It's essentially a souk (market)

The Al Arab from the Jumeirah beachline
All overlooked by the behemoth ski slope
Crusing along Sheikh Zayed road again
The view of the Medina Jumeirah
no wonder!

Extremely popular with the locals
Complete with a full ski slope!
