different taxi companies have different colors 🙂
they all cost the same.. but it looks funny when there are so many in the same place!
from the monorail going across the jumeirah palm, you can see the burj al arab.. even better when the train is almost empty.
the final destination is the hotel atlantis which is obviously a photo stop on every dubai bus tour.. at least a lot of buses stopped there while i was looking at it. and inside they had some great ice cream 🙂
the palm monorail is not connected to the rest of dubai metro.. though they re planning to connect them.. maybe 2014 😉
so now the only way to get from one to the other is by taxi… and on the dubai-end of that monorail, there is a taxi station. however, as the security guy inside said: “Private taxi” .. haha! 🙂
so i started walking to get a REAL taxi. they at least seem to work…. they happily switch on the counter (inside every taxi theres a sign saying “if the counter isnt working, your taxi ride is for free”)
and after 35° outside i went inside to watch people skiing and playing in the snow!
