I was amused by the McDonald's.  When we were in Estonia the guide referred to the McDonald's as the American Embassy. LOL😁


Tim Hortons is the Canadian Embassy.😀

One of those buildings reminds me of the Chrysler building in NYC and another reminds me of Atlantis on Nassau.

 

I thought the same thing about both buildings!😁

Great pictures. Looks like John has got to see most of the major sights in Dubai.

I was last there for the expo a couple of years ago. 

Looking forward to seeing his pics from the African ports

All these pictures, I would have a hard time keeping up with what pictures are from what cities.

Many cameras embed location data within the picture.

I have seen reports that there are only 700-800 guests onboard for the current Dubai to Cape Town sailing. If true that must be one spacious ship! 🙂 

 

No one seems to know exact number.

But that's the ballpark

John is investigating  🤣

 

Top Tier posted 700 something, can't be many pre Gold

Thank you Laura and John for the pictures. They are lovely! I hope you both are doing well.

Laura, if  remember correctly, you will be on a X cruise soon? Bon Voyage!
 

Someone mentioned a building reminding them of Atlantis.....yes, that is the Atlantis Dubai.

Wow, so few passengers!  I hope that means the crew gets extra time off and even is able to get extra port times.  

 

Laura, thank you once again for continuing to share John's pictures.  It's such an incredible trip and imagine the stories he will have to share when you both are together!
