What Everyone's Been Waiting For...

Hello everyone in that distant Pacific island, here are some photos to provide some visual proof of what an interesting place Dubai is:

Some shots of the desert (I can assure you there is no lack of it in Dubai):



Some beautiful Islamic architecture:

A souk (market place), its was taken on the Muslim holiday of Eid so it was very crowded:
An abra, a small traditional boat (although now outfitted with a motor) that we crossed the Creek on:
Well, I hope your computers can handle these photos but I assure you the are only the tip of the iceberg. My mum just bought a new, very fancy camera and is celebrating this by obssessively clicking away on it - resulting in nearly 250 photos!
Looking forward to seeing everyone when I get home and Happy New Year!
Love Char
