WitH on the Palm Tree
Tonight is WitH-Night. Still 35 degrees outside, when I left my cosy office home. Strange to call an office home, but at least, the coffee machine is working and the Pizza guy from the Fast food knows where to deliver my food. Today is Friday, it is ...

Zombie Land
4:30pm Adventured across the road to Mall of the Emirates. Wow. It was like being at say, Castle Towers, but on steroids. Mobs of people - not one of them watching where they're going... Or perhaps they were watching, and they just didn't care if they ...

Hot & Humid
