A blog about what daily life was really like in the Middle East and the daily ramblings of an ex-pat mum. That's how I started the blog. We are now home, so I'm just going to continue with life here. I am a deeply committed Christian. I love to teach about and share my faith so you'll see some of that on the blog as well. Got a comment? Please feel to comment at the end of a post. May our Creator's peace be upon you.

Bur Dubai

Went down into Bur Dubai today (some call it 'Old Dubai'). Loved the billboard advertising kid food. Bur Dubai is the area where the souqs are. Because of where we had to park the car to go to the gold souq, we had (ha, ha) to walk through the Dubai Fish Market. Loads of fun. The smell was tremendously fishy. The place is like the old French Market in New Orleans (does that market exist any more?). Basically open, but covered. It was a seafood version of Saturday market in San Ignacio, Belize. They had stacks of the species of crab the I encountered the other day, but I didn't see any of my local fish friends (black tipped tails).
