The elusive mosque

We walked for hours, today let Noriko decide our sightseeing destination, she wanted to see the Palm Island. I tried to explain, on a horizontal plane, she wouldn't see much detail, ok, off to the next destination. On the map, a large mosque was shown, she wanted to ring see this particular mosque, there was no opportunity to say no.

At 3 pm, this is the mosque we came across, out in the harbour area, a long distance from any significant public transport. This was a non-event, however we trudged on for a number of reasons, a) I like walking, b) I need the exercise and c) we were not spending money. All fairly strong arguements to push on.

As it turns out, this wasn't the mosque she wanted to see, at any rate and when we finally made it back to the transport hub, we drove past the actual mosque - bugger.

The upside is, Noriko was running the show, she got to plan and see her choice of sights, Palm Island was a mistake, however, she had the window seat on the way out of Dubai and saw what she wanted from the air - it turned out for her in the end.
