The lovely Sheikh’s old family house....   wondering through the house I wished the walls could tell the stories of times past.    I enjoyed looking though the old stamp collections and coins.   The photos on the walls reveal a time and an essence of  community that is slipping from the UAE’s grip as they move forward into the new millennium.  I hope the core of who they are and who they were; will be preserved as time unfolds into the future.   Mr. Salami Mohammed Hayanoon was a delight to share a cup of tea with.  Thank you for your hospitality.
