These mountains are towards eastern borders of UAE. I spotted these just 20 min before landing.

The aircraft landed at DXB International at around noon time. I quickly completed entry visa requirements, collected my luggage and went out.

My hotel had arranged complementary pick-up service so in no time i was at Sheraton Creek.

And ... after just 20-25 min i was on my way out to Abu Dhabi The hotel pics will also be uploaded soon

My first destination was Al Ghubaiba bus station in Bur Dubai.

Buses leave for Abu Dhabi every 10-15 min and take around 1:30 to 2 hrs.

The bus departed within no time and soon we were on Sheikh Zayed Road.

The biggest surprise for me was the smoother traffic and no big traffic jams throughout the week i stayed in Dubai.

Perhaps this metro was one of the reasons
