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.

Tradition or comfort?
The Walk at JBR has plenty of activities going on as part of the Dubai Shopping Festival.
The other evening we came across a group performing their traditional dances, dressed in their traditional clothing.
Although I wasn't entirely convinced about the authenticity of the traditional shoes...

Puma Sneakers?
