 Iranian Quarter, this tree is everywhere |

 Mosque, Shia I think. You can almost see the heat, can't you? |
 Definitely Shia. Doesn't it make you want to go to Qom? |
 Better picture of it, but you can see all the debris that surrounds it |
 This sandy lot is directly in front of the shia mosque |
 Park along the creek |
 Though it looks like I'm about to pick my nose . . . |
 Interesting on the way back, about 3 minutes later, the bird was still there |
 This was in the coin and stamp wing of a musuem |

 This is really what a lot of the city looks like, aside from the glitz |

 The corniche. I was as hot as a human can be and not die when I took this. |
 The smart people were in the shade |
 The Middle East Hotel |
 Can anyone read those characters for me? |
 Nice square in Deira |
 Market -- you'll just have to take my word for it that there are a few Gulf Arabs in Dubai |
