watching the final load go in line markers always capture my attention morning lightready for take off heading west again, so backtracking back over the port luxury, more than one window 🙂 big banking turn and there is Dubai again, farin the back, foreground Al Bustan and naval base in the middle Sharjah Oil Refinery Beach side suburb Al Hamriya leaving the desert for the mountain near new military base, with fossil rock and Al Fayah mountain in the middle of the photo the mountains separating Fujairah form the desert and Dubai near Maghribiyah all those Island built of Dubai, guess where all the rocks come from pretty impressive form up high turning mountains into Islands Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Road winding through the mountains to Fujairah form Dubai( been on that road a few times ) Fujairah city entrance Kalba at the top and Fujairah Fujairah beach hotel and Free zone so yes, was one of my favourite drives from Dubai, day trip to Fujairah, going through the mountain, even found some swimming holes in those mountains and further north of this port ( we are looking south )past Khor Fakkan, I even went for a surf. It was a typhoon that tracked along Oman heading to Iran, and created a solid 4-6 foot swell. And just north of Khor Fakkan is a surf spot called Dibba near Aqah. Here is a shot I took of one of the guys I went surfing with ( It is a good 2 and half hour drive from Dubai so I stayed the night, funny ) Reason for the swell Leaving Fujairah behind us now Water looks super smooth and calm down there today ok, bye to the Arab lands for now Flying over the Gulf Of Oman into the Arabian Sea
