The famous fountains at the base of Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall.

At the other side of the water you see the deck where the 'Mango Tree' Thai restaurant used to be. Unfortunately they closed their doors due to high costs of rent.

4X4, Lesson 1..

...is to never ever go alone into a desert! These guys rented a car and got stuck a long way from civilization. They were looking out for help and were lucky we came by!

Toys for boys!

Who shot the sheriff?

That famous song (Bob Marley, Eric Clapton) came to mind when I saw this abandoned car with star in the middle of nowhere. I assume the passengers were okay because we didn't see anybody near this car. By the way...to my knowledge, you should never ever abandon your car when in trouble but I have to admit, I have this knowledge of National Geographic. Channel. Does anyone know what you should do in such a situation?

Bucket List minus 1

One of the reasons to return to Dubai within a month, was to make some sun set photos in the desert. Right after my arrival, I arranged a driver and a four wheel car. My driver Muhammed, a very experienced driver from Pakistan, drove me deep into Dubai's desert to find me some 'untouched' dunes right at sun set.
