It’s Souvenir Sunday – a day to take a look some fun and inexpensive items you can purchase when you’re stuck at the airport.
This week’s finds come from Dubai International Airport , which is known for offering the world’s largest duty free operation.
Gold is a big draw at this airport and each year Dubai Duty Free racks up gold sales of more than $120 million.
No souvenirs made of gold fit into my Souvenir Sunday guidelines of “fun, inexpensive and ‘of’ the city or region,” so I headed for the gift shops offering more affordable items, such as hookahs, wooden camels and sand.
