Me and DUbai

Creek Park station


Yesterday, we went for a water bus ride, to have a little fun.

Usually, we go on other the side of the Creek to eat an Iranian shaworma.

But last evening, I thought it would be nice to go at Creek Park with B4 water bus :)

We thought that the bus will drop us IN the park, but it did not. The station is just where the park ends, it is surrounded by fences and there are no gates.

The gates are across the street, the same road with the Flouting Bridge.

We got a little sad about it. But we moved on quickly.

Still we found a way to enjoy.

We went far away on the pontoon when, I felt everything was spinning with me. I thought I will faint.

We quickly left the pontoon. The dizzy passed me as fast.

We sat on a bench at the bus station ... was silence everywhere … only water and water … And the bus came to take us back.

Though nothing went as we wanted, it was nice and relaxing.


My favorite priest


I think my favorite priest was on vacation ...and now he is back to his job.

uh ... how is it possible?

I returned to my old habit.

God, help me to get used to his voice, as soon as possible so, I don't have to wake up every fucking morning to do nothing.



Prayer Timings


Click here and don't be surprised, if you are new in the arab world, when you will wake up in the early morning and you will hear the prayer call :)

The first month was terrible.

You don't know how it is to wake up every morning and don't know what to do to sleep again...

I tried with ear helmets but were too large, with the plugs of the mp3 player but it hurt my ears.

I was not able to resist any more ...especially when I looked at VG and he was sleeping so peacefully.

Over time, I noticed that though, I no longer awaked up every morning.

I have reached the conclusion that there are 2 "priests" who pray.


In my opinion one of them has talent and I like him praying ... during the day .... but, just this one was awaking me up....

Now, I used with the morning call and I can say that finally I sleep peacefully, too.









Pedestrian crossings in Dubai


The roads of Dubai are amazing as everything else here, I do not think I’m going to see roads, highways, subways, flyovers like this anywhere.

Take a look here!

There are traffic lights in all intersections in the city.

Nothing unusual.
There are traffic lights and pedestrian crossings, even if there are no intersections, as on Jumeira Road,where not too many pedestrians are crossing the street.


These are just like our traffic light in Holiday Village, you push the button (everything here goes on button -very easy to catch for anyone) and then you just wait for the Green color, but you know the buttons are working here:)

Half a year ago when I was in Dubai, in neighborhood I did not see zebras and people were crossing the street (and now they do the same... including me :)) where they grab or often directly on diagonal of the intersection.

I remember sitting on the balcony I was  looking the intersection ... all people crossing everywhere .

Now, I still marvel at the new zebras and signs.
Very funny right?

The dog

Remember when I told you about the dog from the balcony?

If you do not remember it happened like this:

We were returning home, when I saw a dog on a balcony. It was dark and I could not see very well. I showed VG. But when we both looked up to watch, what we saw was actually a man.

Until now, I thought I was wrong and I was greatly amused by the resemblance.

Now, after 2 weeks, I saw what the really truth is:

We were on the same street, returning from the market and as usual I was watching at the same balcony, but what I saw ... wow ... a real dog.

I saw the dog in daylight; I called… puppy puppy and then I whistled… seems to understand me.

I breathed a little easier ... because I worried that I'm racist or something like that...



Ps. I hope soon to get my camera and show you dog from balcony.



end.


Greetings to everyone!

Thanks for visiting my blog...I have not posted anything yet but, don't worry because soon you will find here something intersting. I hope:)

Let's start with the end or...the begining ...hmmm

An end really means a new beginning, right?



Now, after 3 weeks since I came in Dubai, I think I begin to miss my home already:(

Do I think I am on my vacation and I have a little bit time to spend in Dubai and than I will come back home? No:(

I realize very well that I will not go home very soon, because otherwise I would not be homesickness.

I will always remember that the life goes on!
