After a few days spent among the skyscrapers, I was not impressed by Dubai either but instead I was attracted by other neighborhoods, Deira, al Barsha or even Abu Dhabi, you know, I like to discover their history.
Believe me, we didn't even go for a swim in the sea, but we got in the water for a few photos, and the rest of the time we spent in those neighborhoods.
Good to see you here, mate.
