Out and about…
Once again it has taken longer than it should have done to
write a few thoughts about Dubai and the surrounding Emirates. I did get out to
Abu Dhabi for some of the Grand Prix weekend. Unfortunately having a working
work of Sunday to Thursday meant that I missed the actual race as I was stuck
in Dubai and didn’t have time to make the trip to Abu Dhabi. On the flip side driving here is somewhat
similar to dodging and weaving around Yas Marina Circuit so I have had a
somewhat similar experience myself. It
was pretty fun be able to see some of the practice sessions and the time
trials though over the weekend. 
The weather here is absolutely glorious at the minute,
sunny, light breezes, low humidity and just right for spending time outside and
enjoying the outside space that are to found. That meant that this weekend has
been spent out and about in Dubai. Old Dubai and Deira. The old fort, the old
souk, walking along by the creek and generally enjoying sitting outside and people
watching. 
Next week is National Day, so I am sure there will be a lot
of celebrations going on, a whole three days off work (one of which was a newly
announced surprise) and a weekend that leads into the rugby 7s. Looking forward to next week.
