January 3


Tour of Dubai in minibus. Took three hours. The Indians are taking over Dubai. Everywhere we went there was also Indian music. Affluent and cosmopolitan. All 1,860 bus shelters are enclosed and airconditioned (click photo collage to enlarge), all thanks to His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum (peace be upon him).Bought a camera in Jumbo Electronics for DR1,150, including bag and twice 8g memory cards. Call, from Laura who had arrived to collect me in Melbourne Airport, I gave her the wrong date. Booked my baggage in Etihad downtown office Dubai all the way to Melbourne. Bus to Abu Dhabi. 14 hours (almost) flight. Food not great. Slept a little and read a lot.
