Ah I missed Yemen, but I saw Dubay, it was very good and worth seeing.
On a practical note, the wearing of head ware, be it scarf or whatever, is very practical in that the Middle Eastern sun has a very quick drying effect on hair and skin, there accelerating ageing. Staying covered up, is not a bad idea, that is, if like a mad dog or an Englishman you go out when the sun is at or around it's zenith.
