Marjorie at the Madinat Souk947 viewsOur hotel had a cross between a modern shopping mall and an Arab traditional souk. Naturally, we had to go shopping. Marjorie stood still long enough at the entrance for me to take her photo. And then she was off.

Craig at Bab Al Shams Hotel938 viewsOur 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.

Lamb Cooking in the Desert919 viewsAt the huge buffet in the desert restaurant at the Bab al Shams Hotel, there were many different types of lamb. Here the chef is cooking a whole lamb with rice (minus, I think, the head).

Marjorie Enjoying a Mojito913 viewsWe had our first [url=http://www.bacardimojito.com/]mojito[/ul] cocktails in Havana, where they were invented. But the mojitos at the top of the Burj al Arab Hotel in Dubai were a close second.

Marjorie Waiting for the Boat904 viewsOur boat stop at the Dar Al Masyaf hotel. This was very close to the room, so I could hobble to it and jump on a boat. The boat would take us to virtually anywhere in the resort. What a way to commute.

Dinner at the Bab al Shams882 viewsWe went to a great outdoors dinner in a "fort" that had been created in the desert. Here's some not-so-flat flatbrad and some great cheese.
