dubai in the cloud:
author (bjoern lauen) + source of this soooo great picture? here
good morning, dubai :-)
the old city at the right side of the creek
the new city ~ burj khalifa, 828 meters, the highest building on earth
the beach ~ my favourite place in dubai ;o)
more pictures
well, the two most lasting impressions are first the cleanliness of the city (there were almost everywhere trash cans and people making some special areas clean (airport / shopping malls / toilets / etc.) and second its openness & diversity (the arabs are a small minority if you asked me (there are so many indian / chinese / thai / european people out there, most of them foreign workers i suppose ...)

Oh, please don't be mesmerized by its shimmering appearance. Cities are like people, to get to know them you need to live with / in them.
hello ramona :-). of course, you are right ... we need much more time to know the issues ... for me was dubai a nice option to avoid all that waiting on the airport, so i liked it a lot ... well, most i have liked the soooo nice green clear water at the jumeira beach cos i didnt expect that there :-)
