When in Dubai jump on an abra (old wooden boat) and head for the old souk in Dubai. it’s only 1 dirham. cheap, easy, fast and such a wonderful little trip on the water.



the old souk has everything you need and things you didn’t k now you needed. one street is all about gold and jewelry.


spices and different incense you can buy everywhere.






colors and vendors everywhere you look. Don’t forget to bargain !

started our morning around and on the creek in Dubai






jumped on an abra that took us across the creek …about a 10 minute ride to





Deira Old Souk station where we walked along the dock to look at the old boats being filled with everything you could think of …


such beautiful old boats


an old anchor and a new minaret….not attached to the boat though…sometimes pictures just end up crazy like this….

felt like getting in for a swim…..Kathy wouldn’t let me !

back on the water on our way to new adventures
