Abu Dhabi
Struggling a little to get in a routine here in this new country. They say Abu is about 10 years ahead of Qatar from an infrastructural sense. It is a well developed and designed city. I miss a little of the wild west of Doha. Construction everywhere, reckless driving. We came intot he city on the 4 lane highway and into the heart of the city. The people I work fo rhave a large group from NZ turning up during the next few days so we are here to help with that. It is very much Just in tiem support so as mentioned no routine, hence struggling with keeping contact. Sorry folks. We stayed in a hotel right in the city. This is a view from my window. When I went ofr a walk down the road you didn't get the same sense of presence of the local people (Emerati ) like you do with Qatari. Maybe it is just the part fo the city we are in. But there are very few Abayas and dishdashes. This is a photo from my hotel room. (no it's not as the internet keeps dropping off when I try and upload). Will add photos when I get a better connection somewhere in this country.
