In and From Dubai...

Due to whatever reasons, the fonts in blogger.com appears to be in Arabic and there is always an error when I try to translate it to English!

This is my second visit to Dubai, the first one being in 2008, which is two years back.I see a difference in Dubai08 and Dubai10, which is the pollution! I felt Dubai is a little polluted due to the strong blowing winds, which scatters the desert sands leaving it "sandy" everywhere.This is I am amazed to see that its almost as clean as Singapore! No issues (excluding some areas)! I really like the super broad roadways and the posh fast moving cars here that I don't get to see in Singapore.The food here is fantastic.Just a call and you have your food delivered at your doorstep(yes free delivery!) There is a wide range of cuisines mostly from the Middle Eastern countries that I don't get to taste in Singapore,or rather its very rare there. Food court culture is not so popular here, though we can find many in the malls. People rather go to restaurants which has a price range from as cheap as AED.1 for a roti and as expensive as 'I-don't-know-how-much' for the same!

The rich city has beautiful Villa's which takes your breath away especially during the night time.The lights of the villa are lit during the nights which makes it look heavenly.What a scene!

Not to forget to mention about the busy and chaotic Sheikh Zayed road.You get an amazing view of the skyscrapers outlining the sky.This is where all big hotels, office buildings and some posh apartments are located.

Maybe you had to leave in order to miss a place; maybe you had to travel to figure out how beloved your starting point was.Flights to Gaborone
