Dubai is AMAZING! Considering it was my first trip out of EA, first trip off the continent (not to mention the first time in an airborne plane) it was all i expected it to be...and then some. Lovely state-of-the-art everything!! Pic next is of the Borg Al Arab Hotel: dont even hate. Taking a clean pic of that wonder would require a camera much more expensive that what i had, and probably more skills than i can muster.It goes without saying that it was the experience of a lifetime and, despite the subdued shopping experience (luxury does come with a price), and limited tour of the city, i had a blast.
But wait! Do i hear myself saying i had a blast? Without any designated female companion? I believe i did! Pure beauty need not be shared to be beautiful, it just is. The company only allows our expression and interpretation audience. Period. This is not to diminish shared experience no: Just to reinforce to the young and single like myself that joy, beauty, grace, can all be partaken of in solitude, and still be as moving and compelling as if we had the love of our lives next to us.
If not the architectural marvels, the wonders of human technology, the exquisite cuisine, the breath-taking sights, and rainbow of cultural diversity, Dubai showed me the pure joy of simply enjoying my life, where it is, how it is.
