I had a more relaxing morning this morning (and an early night last night) so I’m more refreshed 🙂

At 13:00 I started the tour of Sharjah(another emirate here in UAE): it’s mainly accommodation and has far more high-rise buildings then Dubai, but none of them are as tall or as impressive, it’s more conservative than Dubai and is a dry city. Its more open than Dubai but like Dubia it is covered in construction sites as they invest the money from oil into property. I foresee a huuuuuuuge real astate crash for them in not too long, they do have no income tax, vat, import tax or export tax, but it’s unlivable in summer and the rest is tourism and real estate it seems.

Desert Tour: I went on a brief desert tour and saw how desolate the land was before they struck oil. I also got to ride a camel and hold a falcon (called Ashley). Then we watched the sun set over the dunes before returning to the city. It was lovely 🙂
