Burj Al Arab - awesome hotel in Dubai!

Burj Al Arab (Arabic = Tower of Arabs), Dubai is a luxurious hotel situated along the coastline of the Emirate of Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.

The architecture resembles the billowing sail of a Dhow, the traditional Arabic vessel.

The architect was Tom Wright of Atkins. Beautiful design!

I never tire taking pictures of this wonderful iconic hotel, the above are some that I have taken recently.

Moroccan tea - a tradition

I enjoyed Moroccan tea while visiting the Global village during the last Dubai Shopping festival 2012 - 2013.

It was written at the front of the outlet that they serve authentic Moroccan tea so I decided to try it out.

I liked the drink.

Mint leaves are added to gunpowder green tea to make this flavourful drink. During preparation, the drink is poured back into the pot to mix it well with sugar. Yes, they prepare this delicious drink with sugar.

You can see a traditional silver-colored teapot (berrad) and glass with a greenish tint. These are kept on a silver tray. A soft cloth is wrapped at the handle. The hot drink is poured into glasses from a certain height to produce foam.

Green tea is rich in antioxidants and is very good for health.

Moroccans serve tea as part of their wonderful hospitality. On formal occasions, tea drinking here is akin to the world famous Japanese tea ceremony.

On stilts - awesome performance!

Stilt walkers at the Dubai Mall...😊

The pair was very friendly and passers-by were clicking pics with them all the time they were in front of the indoor aquarium in the Mall.

They were balancing themselves on Chinese stilts or peg stilts. They strap these stilts on the legs and walk. Have to keep on moving with these stilts, one cannot maintain a still posture with this type of stilts.

Seen them onFriday; Friday's you will see such shows in the Mall...!
Please note, the weekend starts from Thursday evening to Saturday in this part of the world.

Great entertainment...!
