Visit to Al Nayhan Mosque

We had a nice weekend with our friend Diane over from the UK. We did some of the "touristy" things and took the opportunity to visit the Grand Mosque, that we had been meaning to do for ages. The whole structure is beautiful and inside is literally awesome. Caz was a bit upset that the ladies room for worshipers was pretty bland compared with the men's - but hey that's Islam!


Pictures from the trip are here:-

We took Diane back to Dubai for the rest of her stay (she was staying at the Westin, which we did have to have a "nose" at - it did look really lovely. We may have to pay a visit ourselves one day.



On the way to Dubai Caz was driving so I took the chance to snap some of the places where the motorway barriers have been demolished by reckless drivers. I missed quite a few, but I am sure you will get the idea! I guess this is about a 60-70km (c.40 miles) stretch and I managed to snap 20 places - not bad, one every two miles!
