Bur Dubai

Bruce felt well enough to venture out last night, so he drove us to Bur Dubai, the city's historic district, in hopes of eating here:






The kitchen was closed due to repairs. (Apparently, Basta is pretty popular around here, so we are making plans to go back.)


Then after checking out the restaurant next door, I decided I wasn't in the mood for camel. No, I'm not joking. It was all that was on the menu. Bruce was willing to give it a try. But it didn't matter to me how many different ways they could serve up a "camel burger" or "camel soup," I just wasn't interested. Our surroundings happened to be of much more interest to me.












We finally decided on good ol' fashioned pizza at Sarpino's Pizzeria by the Arabian Courtyard...





...where we could peer through our window at the Dubai Museum across the street...




 ...and play around with our camera some. ;-)
