These were on the stretch right outside Ibn Battuta Mall this morning.

Moving back to Dubai after 22 years has been an experience! Back then we didn't have the internet or blogs. Now we do I can jot down my thoughts on daily life, things we come up against, things we enjoy, the multi-national society, the laws, the weather...plus other things in general which catch my attention.
About Me
- Seabee
- We lived in Dubai from 1977 to 1984, visited on a couple of holidays, then moved back again in 2005. We came because we wanted to watch the incredible development as it happened and we moved back to Oz in 2011. I now blog on Life in Oz and the link is on my last post here. I welcome comments & debate on the blog, but insults are unnecessary and inappropriate. I will delete any which are libel, racist, obscene, advertising or which are simply to make a point but are completely off-subject. If you want to do that, create your own blog. Oh, and I've decided to add a new category to the delete list because there are too many of them left on blogs - stupid comments. If you want to use my photos or quote from my posts you may do so - but only if you credit the source and give a link back to my original post.

Hey.. I saw it first... HERE!!!! so doyou carry a camera everywhere
Yes, I do try to always carry a little digital camera with me.
Well above the water level too! That's useful
THIS COMMENT IS NOT TO BE PUBLISHED!!!!
I have set up a new blog www.greenindubai.blogspot.com
i would like to invite you to be one of hte contributors to the blog. I am looking forward to a constructive attempt at highlighting green issues in Dubai and also recognize environmentally friendly acts by the residents.
Lets me know if you would like to be part of this project so that I can then add you to the list of contributors. thanks
The sides of the thing (whatever it's called) where the lovely metro is going to be is also now on view. LOL!
In the Dubai Mall area they've started decorating the sides of it.
I am not going to spoil the surprise. Hint: it resembles the style of what I call the 'bathroom railings' dividing the Jumeirah Beach road. Totally 'innovative solution' ;-)
What's making me really crack up, though, is the word verification for today: 'bunmess' - kid you not lol!
