Late breakfast today and off to Old Souk again to check out the Dubai Museum which is located in the Al Fahidi Fort, which was built in 1799 and has been a palace, garrison and prison, but was converted to a museum in the 70's. It houses some very interestin dioramas depicting Dubais history and the way people lived in those old days, some artefacts date back more than 3000 years and apparantley Dubai had a thriving pearl industry also. But now relies on oil.
It is very, very hot today so headed back to the hotel early for some lunch and to recover!
Tomorrow we are off to Moscow
