I'm in Dubai. Today is Sunday & I'm working. Though we had Friday off and went to a Desert Safari. Best description I can give of it is Roller-coaster ride in the sand dunes in a 4WD. In our case, it was a Landcruiser. I have a new perception of this beast and you can add some degree of respect to that as well. Been here in this beautiful Emirates since last Tuesday (14/12), insya-Allah will be going back today (19/12). Dubai is part of UAE & is one of the 7 emirates making up the UAE. Great place, very modern & cosmopolitan, lots of foreigners, most expensive (?) hotel in the world - Burj al-Arab with lowest room rate of USD3,000 per night, car lovers paradise, desert & sand, sand, sand.



Okay, the sand is from the Desert Safari & interestingly, they are really cool (as in temperature) at night. I was told now is the best time to visit Dubai weather wise.
