The Cove Rotana, Ras Al Khaimah

We stayed the night at this resort last night after I had business meetings in RAK in the afternoon. RAK is in the Northern Emirates and has a lovely coastline. It was also a good 10 degrees celsius lower as well, which was nice. The hotel was pretty busy with tourists, mainly from Germany and Russia. I did wonder if they had been duped into going there, thinking they were going to Dubai!

We had a nice room with a view of the sea...

This morning there was a huge flock of birds close to the shore line.

The birds heading out across the Gulf.

...and a nice send off from the hotel!
