1. Dubai-land, a city of great contrasts. The photo shows the view from the swimming pool rooftop -- the pile of old mattresses and rubbish on the nearby roof argues somewhat with the high rise. The skyline is dominated by cranes and the infrastructure for the rapid transit system is phenomenal. A highlight was drinking hot coffee around a roaring fire at a man-made indoor ski slope while it was 39 degrees outside. Lesley says ask Sue about the doona story.--'doona' may be used a lot more in Australia. Sue says ask Jo (Sue’s daughter) about the very friendly shop assistant helping Jo to try on jewellery. Jo and Lesley love the bling.
