Beauty of Bur Dubai Bus Stand
Beauty of Bur Dubai Bus Station – It depicts the real life that happens in Dubai on a Friday. The crowd from different cities forms the nations face of expats and locals and find it the most favorable choice of transport to move from point to point, irrespective of whether they are affluent or not.
An elephant’s eye view
An elephant’s eye view. Looking at it closely, I could derive on many management principles of silence whenever and wherever required and a vociferous approach at times of extreme intensity.
Lot to learn from the caparisoned elephants, who are are paraded at temple festivals in Kerala.
Photo Speaks – Sound of Post
Sound of Post – Remembering the olden days, when we used to wait for the odd letters to arrive by post, the sound at the postal desk back home, where the van deliver a bag full of letters and the postal clerk sort it and stamp each one of it with a heavy thud at his ink filled desk, as we children wait for the news to collect it before the postman delivers it home by walk. The stock of envelopes and stamps – a few still remain, even though now, I never use. The stamps, the letters, the postal mail – the feeling of reading a hand written letter, wonder the new generation ever experienced it !
Mall shoppers left unprotected under the sun

Busy bus stop at Marina Mall in Abu Dhabi lacks bus shelter By Ramesh Menon, Gulf News Reader Published: June 29, 2012
Shoppers leaving Marina Mall are often left waiting for the bus under the sun because no bus shelter is available at the popular bus stop.
Abu Dhabi’s public buses connect the Marina Mall shopping complex to various points in the city. The service and the buses are very useful for shoppers at the mall.
However, the bus stop in front of the mall doesn’t have a shelter for the passengers. The shades and benches provided are far away from the bus stop. Another issue is that the chain dividers for the taxi parking area act as a hindrance to passengers who have to rush between the taxis and the dividers when the bus arrives.
I urge the mall and other relevant authorities to kindly consider installing temporary sun shades for shoppers who use the bus during this summer period.
