There are several local Arabian cusines served
We even made some new friends!
The queues are long!
Presenting the biggest Mosque in the UAE
It stretches for quite a distance..
Inside the mall which everyone's talking about
The river taxis
The dance floor open for all dancers for the night
Guess that is all the place have for exploration!
Short tunnel is short
Such as open air amphitheaters...

On the bus towards the palace!
Some which are look really bizzare!
But the exterior views is all we need. :P
Let head in!
It's huge and it's only the world's eighth largest mosque.

Back at the Creek!
And I got the best seat on the house!
