Sheikh Sayed Grand Mosque |
Stunning, awesome,
bewildering, OTT, Excessive; choose your own adjective. The guide was
entertaining too and open to any questions about the mosque or Muslim beliefs.
Fo hadn't realised that her arms had to be completely covered so ending up
wearing a full length polyester burka. It was over 40c outside so she really
suffered.
Crystal and gold chandlier. It weighs 12 tonnes. |
We had lunch again
at Jones the Grocer before heading back to Julian's place to await our car to
the airport.
Overall impression of the Emirates? They’re an amazing and
confusing place to visit, if you have money. Would I visit again? Probably not.
Would I work here? Probably yes, if paid enough. Would I live here? Absolutely
not - my shades kept steaming up. Oh... and I nearly forgot to mention, they
really, really love to shop here.
Yes, that really is Fiona underneath the black tent.
