All
Well, only in Dubai!
But at least there's a nice bar here. :)
Strange sign outside with some serious-looking words.
Meeting our friendly cetacean friends, specifically the Delphinidae!
At peace with the desert breeze
The "greenery" by the river
The steamer had been through quite alot for a ship!
The street markets do yield some interesting finds...
Putting final plans to our sights for the day
Now where did that bugger go?
All encased with rather thick plastic panels
I am on top of.... a bench!
The forest we bashed from
Central station in the day
is always very reassuring...

which you can never fit into...
All the bigger birds get fancy anklets. :P
no palace is complete without large flight of steps!
never a bridge too far!
Wacky architecture by the creekside
Funky bridge thingie
It does look pretty in there
More height = better view!
The cloud covered mountain peaks
And derelict castles
Not too far off is another pretty site...
What bridge?
I spy a castle invasion...
There is a smaller fair open by the beach
Before departure, it's back to St Mary's street for lunch!
Congo river rapids
Crusing along Sheikh Zayed road again
This castle, the Oaiham castle traces back to 1207

And we are on the road to our next spot!
A lone bench overlooks the sights
a jerry bruckheimer moment... :3
Seems this is a popular side drift spot!

Including those courtesy of the US of A!
The arcades are all open too!
A walk through the darkkkk forest
The marina-side walk
But hey at least there some attractions, like an amusement park
All overlooked by the behemoth ski slope
Early medical contraptions, something frankenstein will appreciate
The Mall of the Emirates!
Tada!
Off the train I go! Bye Cardiff!
