One of those nights when nature provides its own Instagram filter.
I’ve been manacled to my computer all week desperately trying to get on top of everything, so it felt good to get out today, even if it was just for a walk along the beach. 🏖

#beachlife Dubai style. I read that Dubai is flooded now; we knew the rain was coming this weekend but you never know quite how much. This is from my last day in the city on Wednesday and no sign of rain here. ☀️

My favourite part of Dubai was still the old town. These pictures are from the gold Souk
It would have been nice to have had more of a poke around but the vendors were quite sales aggressive
I didn’t buy anything but then I really don’t shop anyway; I just enjoy looking. ☀️

The desert just waking up this morning near #dubai
I’m not someone who gets up early enough for #dawn very often so this is a rarity for me ☀️

Here’s the side of #dubai that everyone recognises: the #burjkhalifa with the fountains lit up.
Well it had to be done I suppose.
Literally thousands of people jostling for space to watch the fountains light up for 5 minutes. More selfie sticks than you’d ever need to see in a lifetime ⛲️ ⛲️ ⛲️ #themadwomanintheattic #mytraveldiary #girlswhotravelsolo #dubaifountains #dubaimall #citybreak #visitdubai #visituae🇦🇪
