One More Visit to Dubai


An amazing last full day before I get ready to head home to the USA!  The Mumzar Beach on the Persian Gulf was the most beautiful beach setting I've seen here.  I hope you like the pictures!  Then we headed for Old Dubai  to walk through a souk, a market in Bur Dubai.  Top that off with a dinner cruise on Dubai Creek in the evening and we had another amazing day!

As you walked along, vendors would approach you with their goods to see if you might be interested.

Thank you so much for letting me share this trip with you!  It more than met my expectations and it meant a lot to work on this blog and try to capture some of the magic!  And thank you so much to Michelle and Greg for being so patient in helping with putting it together!
