I am coming to the land of the UAE tomorrow afternoon for 5 days of spending time with my two nephews (yes, I do have direct influence on young impressionable souls. Why do you think my sister moved to a different country?) and watching Dubai as it continues to burn to ash and cinder. If you are in town, please drop me a line at sandmonkey@gmail.com and let's meet up.
Have a lovely day!
Enjoy Abu Dhabi. Check if the Hilton Jazz Bar is still the place to be.
Might be a chance to pick up a cheap mercedes. Apparently they are just sitting around the airport parking lot.
I hope the jazz bar is still as cool as it used to be… Good food at Hemingway’s next door too. I wish I could meet up with you, but I’m not there right now… Enjoy!
I understand that lots of expats have left, leaving behind the cars, homes, etc.
It may be an excellent time to ‘shop’.
