Burj Al Arab

Quick, emergency blip snap of the Burj Al Arab from the beach next door (a bad place to take a pic with an ultrawide lens on). For those who may not know it, this is the world's only (self proclaimed) seven star hotel. A friend of mine who works for Jumeirah, the owners,tells me that there are 9 members of staff per guest! The word iconic is often overused and abused in Dubai, but I think it applies well to this amazing structure.
