Our Bedroom at the Burj al Arab -- Dubai890 mol gekuckt ginnWith a spectacular view over the Arabian Sea. In the distance, they're constructing an artificial series of islands that will look like a palm tree. The palm tree can be seen from space. Nothing half-measure in Dubai.%20. %121 %2005

Breakfast at the Burj al Arab Hotel5508 mol gekuckt ginnMarjorie having breakfast. We were surrounded by plants from Hawaii (or from tropical islands) like the naupaka. The poor things were struggling: I suspect the humidity is too low in Dubai, or it's too hot -- or both.%20. %121 %2005

Craig and Marjorie Before Dinner1298 mol gekuckt ginnI just held the camera out with one hand and pressed the shutter. My foot really hurt on this whole trip, but if we didn't take the trip ("bought" with British Airways miles) by December 1, we were told we'd lose it. So I took golf carts everywhere, or sat by the pool. Easy, peasy in Dubai.%20. %121 %2005
