I learnt there are churches and no, christians don't need to hide to worship. They seem pretty liberal.
Forget the sun o. This place is far from hot. It is very very breezy. I've not used my handkerchief today at all despite the extended minutes of trekking.
It may or may not be unbearable depending on your body's endurance.

We only spent last night in Sharjah so i can't give a correct answer, i'm sorry.


I know right. Everything is just so positively different from Nigeria. May God help us.
It is winter here now, during summer: you can't even walk under the hot sun, that's why they call uae sun city, October to mid of April used to be cold but from April ending to September, Chai the sun can finish person embarassed

So far, i'm yet to see snow but the weather has been extremely cool. Despite extended minutes of walking, i haven't used my handkerchief and i'm someone who usually sweats very easily.

Sorry for the delay. The only time i can post is when we're back at the hotel where WiFi is available.

Dhow Cruise, Dubai
Dinner on a boat floating on the Dubai creek. Adults can (allegedly) expect to cough up about 160AED for this experience. It's cheaper for kids but still quite pricey.
The creek is on Baniyas Road, Dubai.

Sun and Sky Floating Restaurant.

The time is now 01:24 GST but people are going about their businesses. (Some) shops are still open, people are still out eating, vehicles are still moving and pedestrians are also on the move.
Even shops that have closed are only protected by transparent glass doors with the lights inside turned on. So you can still window-shop and return to purchase during business hours.
