[Leica] A mosque in Dubhai

[daveenglish at icloud.com (David English)]

Thank you, for looking and your comments.

In Dubhai mostly everything is new and expensive looking. Lots of malls and 
covered shopping streets, low on old world charm. But that side of the Creek 
has some semblance of yesterday, at least for now. It gets pretty hot there 
so I suspect outdoor markets and the Arab life style is more evident in the 
evening or at night. My plane to Tivendrum took off around 5pm so I didn't 
get to see that side of Dubhai.
