Dubai is a very popular holiday destination for the English as the weather is always warm.
They visit during their winters.
I was enjoying the sights when i spotted these camels on
the beachfront. I did get to ride one!

Happy New Year to my friends on TTL.
I am back from my travels having visited
my family in Zambia and South Africa.
I stayed for a night in Dubai on my way over.
Dubai lies in the Arabian Desert and is situated on the Persion Gulf coast of United Arab Emirates.
An evening tour in a Land Cruiser took me 85km out of Dubai to the red dunes of Ali Hibab.
It was an amazing experience and we had a camel ride and entertainment included.

A common sight in Africa.
A woman will habitually carry things on her head.
This is strange to outsiders but so frequently seen in SA that one doesn't give it a second glance.
lnterestingly they are wearing Western clothes,
but the woman on the right
has a political message in English, on her blouse....
ANC LIVES ANC LEADS
Referring to the political party, the
African National Congress.

I pass this lovely garden almost every day
on my walk to the beach.
l decided that it is well worth photographing.

Last week, l photographed this girl surfing all alone on the incoming time at Killalea

Summer is here at last!
I took this shot whilst kayaking on our little lake heading towards the mouth.

A bee buzzing around this bright blue flower in my garden.

This little girl caught my eye at a garden show.

We visited the Botanical Gardens in Wollongong recently and i finally captured this bee in a rose after following it for some time.

A calm morning. Sun sea and clouds! How lucky we are to have this perfect beach on our doorstep.
