While I was quite, I had to arrange many things.<br />
I moved out from my apartment, sold some furnitures and now I am settle in hotel apartment for couple of weeks. This is the view from the hotel. Again it is Marina but more slightly different from my regular angle from home :)<br />
<br />
After 6.5 years in Dubai, it will be hard to leave from this city and friends but I decided to stop working for a while and travel. :)<br />
I am going back to my home country, Turkey and start to travel from nearby cities first.<br />
<br />
Slowly I hope to extend my travel to other countries. Cuba in November is already planned, I hope others will follow after Cuba visit.<br />
<br />
I am leaving the country at the end of the June. I hope I could have more posts about Dubai. While I was struggle to post regularly, I admire Erik once again. How he handled blogging and moving was impressive.<br />
<br />
There are many stuff out here in Dubai waiting to be photographed. I am glad that I photographed some of them and shared a bit of this city with you. Even it is not enough, some is always better than nothing. :)<br />

<br />
These wind towers were used to catch the wind and divert it into the house when there was no electricity and modern AC. the other name is "wind catcher"<br />

When I visit Bastakiya area, always i stopped at <a href="http://www.xvagallery.com/hotel/">XVA Hotel & Cafe</a> for refreshments and their delicious vegetarian foods. <br />
Each time, you see different exhibition at gallery area, have different decoration at cafe area and unique small artistic items at their gift shop. I haven't checked their hotel area but for sure, that part also should be great. If I would be a tourist in Dubai, I would prefer to stay here instead of 5 stars Hotels in high rise buildings.<br />

I was not able to post regularly last two weeks. at first I had visitors, then I was busy again. Finally I am back with another mural by <a href="http://www.iamrubensanchez.com/">Ruben Sanchez</a>. It is located in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Bastakiya">Al Bastakiya. </a> Al Bastakiya is one of oldest area in Dubai dates back to 1890s. You can see the short history from the wikipedia page.<br />
From the first year i arrive in dubai, I always enjoy spending time at bastakiya. Each year its getting better and better. right now there are many local shops who are selling local art pieces, paints, jewellery, some small gifts. There are also some galleries.<br />
I saw this mural on several post at Instagram and since then I was planning to go there and spent some time. It is not so close to where i live and work. when I have visitors, it was a good reason to go there and show them around. They also enjoyed If you are planning to visit Dubai, Al Bastakiya should be in your to do list. I may post more pictures from this area later. First here we have graffiti for<a href="http://oaklanddailyphoto.blogspot.ae/2015/05/monday-mural-shop-in-laurel-district.html"> Monday Mural</a> please check other murals all around the world.<br />

We started to tour Dubai like a newbie tourist in town. <br>
Our first stop is Burj Khalifa & Dubai Mall. Of course dancing fountain one of my favorites. Every half an hour the song and the choreography is changing. Tonight we saw 4 different show. the first one was Thriller by Michael Jackson, second one was Arabic song, third one was Indian, the fourth one, Ooo ı do not remember the last one. I was trying to catch this post. Not the best but really good one from my mobile. <br>
This week, I think I will post only pictures from my mobile pictures. </p>

I recover with spending whole weekend while sleeping. <br>
Today, while driving to the office,  I was thinking what can I post for today. <br>
The sky was dull,  the humid was high. I would say its gonna rain If wouldn't be in Dubai. <br>
After all those years, there is still a chance to get surprised by the weather in Dubai.  <br>
At lunch break I was looking table to sit outside thinking it will be warm but still I want to sit outside as much as I can. And here the surprise,  there was rain. 😀not rain like a rain but still table and chairs were get raindrops.<br>
I had to take my lunch to the office. Here we have the view from our office pantry with clouds. The windows can not be opened because of the security reasons , only it give 10 cm gap. While I was holding my mobile in that gap the picture comes out tilted. I didn't want to correct it. 😀</p>

This month's theme is Revolution. I fount it bit difficult to find proper subject.<br />
<br />
In Dubai we have the biggest, longest, highest ...est many things but I couldn't call for the first time ever or invention or having a big step can be considered as revolution.<br />
<br />
I google it "Dubai revolution" I found <a href="http://rcdxb.com/">this</a> website called themselves "Revolution Cycles"<br />
Sorry but this is all I got this month from Dubai for the theme.<br />
<br />

Last week, also there was another celebration for 23 April National Sovereignty and Children's Day in <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/united-arab-emirates/dubai/sights/museums-galleries/childrens-city">Children's City</a> in Dubai.<br />
A picture from the inside decoration of main building. Earlier I heart Dolphin Show in this complex but never visited the place. As far as I learnt from my friends this is nice place for kids, there is small science museum and educational halls as well.<br />

Last 6 years we celebrate 23 April national Sovereignty and Children's day among Turkish society in Dubai. Last couple of years we added fun run for kids also these celebrations.<br />
<br />
This year, more than 100 kids from different ages (babies, toddlers and teenagers) participate for the fun run. I was volunteer both organization and photographing the event.<br />
<br />
Here we have medals for each kid. Since I do not like to post kids picture on internet, I share their medals which are waiting for kids.<br />
It was great fun, Some kids came to us and ask "can we play it again?" :)xyzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14860209095402422581noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7607843063063956359.post-10489999155898416572015-04-27T00:00:00.000+04:002015-04-27T00:00:00.374+04:00work on progress<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since today is Monday, here we have another artist on her work. I took this picture during comic con exhibition. At the same time and at the same exhibition area (but different entrance & halls) there was Art exhibition. These graffiti artist performed at the afternoon as a part of Art festival.<br />

last weekend I had photo shooting at JBR - the beach. While I was waiting for the client, I noticed this graffiti at the entrance of the Ocean View Hotel. I couldn't read the artist's signature.<br />
