United Arab Emirates, 1999
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or you can register for email updates. Thanks for visiting!
The United Arab Emirates was not anywhere near the top of my list of places to visit, but I went anyway. (Now I think about it, neither was Georgia!) This time it was for work rather than strictly as a tourist, but I did have enough time to have a look around Abu Dhabi and take a few pictures. At the bottom are a couple from Dubai too, although, generally, those pictures did not come out quite as well.

If the pictures have piqued your interest, there are a few web sites that you might want to visit:
- Emirates Net. The local ISP and phone company.
- Arab.Net. Lots of information on the middle-east as a whole.
- You’re going to need a guide while travelling around. And since you’ll find there’s not a lot to see in UAE you may as well get a guide on the whole region rather than just the Emirates. As always, there’s a Lonely Planet guide. You can buy a copy from Amazon (UK or US).
