Although there was still wind and sand in the air I decided to make the walk that I had planned.
Starting from the hotel the plan was to walk along Jumeira and Umm Suqeim beaches to Burj Al Arab, the famous Dubai 7 star hotel that is shown in so many brochures about Dubai.

From there it is just a few minutes walk to the Medinat Jumeirah resort.
Build in the form of a faux-Arabic city with sand coloured buildings criss-crossed with miniature canals.

In the center the Souk Medinat Jumeirah offers an Arabian bazar with winding allyways, shops and restaurants.

After wandering around and enjoying a coffee and water I headed for the Mall of the Emirates metro station, about 2 kilometers away.
From there I took the metro to Al Karama station and walked the another 5 minutes to my hotel.
