Moving back to Dubai after 22 years has been an experience! Back then we didn't have the internet or blogs. Now we do I can jot down my thoughts on daily life, things we come up against, things we enjoy, the multi-national society, the laws, the weather...plus other things in general which catch my attention.

Funny what you can find
Yesterday was a good evening out in one of my favourite parts of Dubai, Satwa. I'll post more about it tomorrow.
In one of the many fascinating shops, buying some frankincense if you really want to know, I found something that I thought was just a myth.
I had snake wine in Vietnam. It did have a full small snake in the bottle. Tasted like a strong spirit rather than wine but the locals believe it makes males stronger.....
So you bath in it and what?
ReplyDeletei heard there's snake wine...the wine has a full snake in it. looks like a preserved snake in formaldehyde

ReplyDeleteSo Dave; did you get stronger
ReplyDeleteJeyla, I was ten-foot tall and bulletproof for several hours... A feeling that did not last....
ReplyDeletei think its the snake venom that gives the extra kick..not enough to do any real damage, but enough to get you high up in the sky.
