Craig at Bab Al Shams Hotel683 mol gekuckt ginnOur hotel in the desert, where we spent the last two days of our stay. As I couldn't walk during the trip -- other than very short distances -- I spent a lot of time sitting. A chance for me to catch up on my Sue Grafton mysteries.%20. %121 %2005

Marjorie Descends the Stairs750 mol gekuckt ginnThis curved stairway looks like it is in the hotel lobby. It is, in fact, the stairs that go from one floor of our suite in the Burj al Arab to the other floor. And I gather that we had a "basic" suite. The hotel only has suites.%20. %121 %2005

Burj al Arab Hotel757 mol gekuckt ginnThe right side of the hotel --- bathed in purple light --- is made from Kevlar, and is designed to look like a sail.

Dar Al Masyaf - Night Time1013 mol gekuckt ginnThis is the view from our "boat stop" on the canal system at the Dar Al Masyaf villas. To get to dinner we waited for a boat to pick us up. The ride to the souk only took a few minutes. Now that's civilised!%20. %121 %2005

Waiting to Go In The Submarine to Dinner856 mol gekuckt ginnIn the Burj al Arab, the seafood restaurant is supposedly below the sea. To get there, you take a "submarine" that's more like a Disneyland ride. I'm in the holding area, waiting for our "submarine" to arrive. The restaurant has a huge fish tank, so it's like eating (I guess) underwater.%20. %121 %2005
