Big Bus Tour-Part 2




























Since we got such a late start yesterday, Vickie and Kasey headed back out on the Big Bus Sightseeing Tour. (Savannah and I headed to her last music class.) The bus tickets were good for 24 hours, so that had a few hours left to try and hit as many spots as possible. They ended up taking the bus back to the old part of Dubai and walking the Dubai Creek. On their way they got great views of the Burj Khalfia and other buildings in "new" Dubai.

After hearing about their day I think they have probably actually seen more of Dubai than we have. They found the fish and fruit market, a camel museum, the dhow boats, and a mall I have never heard of. They had a great time and came home (by cab, since they missed the last bus again!) with a whole watermelon, rock melon, Dubai dates, and rambutan (a fuzzy fruit from Thailand that has a grape like center)...all for Savannah. She loved every bite of the fruit. Guess I may have to learn how to drive down to the fruit market, they said it was all really inexpensive...which it is not a the local grocery stores)!
