Olympic Sports in Dubai
October 12th, 2009 | 
Author: I’m getting ready to leave the sand and the oceans water and head out to more sand. I’m in the Emirates business class lounge away from the main concourse of the airport. I’m struggling to keep my eyes open. I had a huge day and the hotels Dubai UAE lived up to their names. Last night, I didn’t get to sleep until 2:30am. I got back from dinner in the desert where this other hotel was playing disco on the ground floor, which was really cool, because the way it was constructed was that the building would sway to the loudness of the music, and the beat.
I was staying with a friend, spending the night at this swaying loud hotel, and we were on the third floor, so there was no way we were able to sleep. I told my friend that I needed to head back to my hotel, even though it was my last time to be with my friend, I needed sleep before by my tour of the city tomorrow. By the time I got back and had another bite to eat it was 2am! I set the alarm for 11am and I was back down in the lobby waiting for the transport bus to take me to the airport, my flight was at 3:30pm to Cairo. I gave up on the tour of the city. I was too tired.
Well enough about sleep. Dubai is one great city! It’s alive, fast pace and faster drivers. There’s only one road rule that I could tell, was you stop at red lights and other than that it’s fair game. For all my friends back home, if a car came up and tried to cut you off, you’d blow your horn and yell at them, but here, you let them in and drive past them and then dive in on some one else. It almost felt like an Olympic sport! Kind of like synchronized driving.
I’d better go now, another guy wants to use this free Internet service here in the Emirates business class lounge…I’ll fill you in later and hopefully, add a few pics! I miss everyone…Take Care…
