And here we are — the last three sets of images.  Despite commentary and captions, there is always much more to a trip than gets written.  If you have questions or want any details, just let me know and I’ll fill in some of the blanks.

Here are the final beach pictures of our visit. Unfortunately, this was a hot hot hot day, and unlike the the other beaches where you basically got out of your transportation and were there, this required lots of extra travel. I don’t think it was worth the effort, and I would definitely tell people not to bother going here.  The Marina itself seemed OK, but if you going for the beach, don’t.

Our last night in Dubai was also water based. No beach, though; just the sights and sounds of the second most influential body of water in the development of Dubai.  It’s called a “creek,” but as you’ll see from the pictures, there’s a bit of heft to it.  (I would have liked to have taken on the creek dinner cruises, but that didn’t happen. Oh well.)

And lastly, some parting shots. I’ve never photographed me leaving somewhere, but that was the theme of these last images.  I’m reminded of that Simpsons episode, where Patty and Selma are showing an exhaustively complete set of slides of their vacation. Maybe this isn’t quite as bad, but it still seemed odd to get photos of the road to the airport.
