Happy Eid

Eid is a Muslim holiday celebrating the Arabic interpretation of the events involving Isaac's obedience to God's command to sacrifice his son. For me, Eid meant a nine-day school break. So, a colleague and I decided to vacation in Abu Dhabi. On the way back, we stopped in Dubai. The photos below are of our hotel, the Khalidiya Palace Rayhaan by Rotana.

It is located on the Arabian Sea in a very posh tourist area.
