A few years ago, all of Dubai saw the painted camels and falcons. My company was offered to purchase one of the camels... for a whopping price of 28,000 Dirhams...<BR/>Some of the camels can still be seen around town. For example: a camel covered in small mosaic mirror tiles is standing outside the Emirates Towers Hotel. I think they're lovely!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21258644.post-59727987563514410242008-05-19T07:33:00.000+04:002008-05-19T07:33:00.000+04:00The cows were all over Sharjah mega mall a couple ...The cows were all over Sharjah mega mall a couple of years ago.

I just stopped the car and took the pic, uploaded it and this is it.<BR/><BR/>It's just an extension, I suppose, of all the colourful camels, horses and falcons that are dotted around the city, but a bit more creative than just standing one in front of a bank.Seabeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06939892206726271433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21258644.post-25895421942547211412008-05-18T17:33:00.000+04:002008-05-18T17:33:00.000+04:00ROFLMAO.The first though that came to my mind was ...ROFLMAO.<BR/><BR/>The first though that came to my mind was "Photoshop!"dubaibillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02508407395899589525noreply@blogger.com
