Too long!

First came here in 1988! I remember the speed bumps and the lines of trucks on the Dubai - Abu Dhabi road and it once took me 5 hours to drive to RAK because the road had been buried under sand dunes!

Defense Roundabout was a crossroads.

The World Trade Centre...was in the middle of the desert!

:shock: :shock: :shock:

haha, yeah... the smell... and the heat- at 1AM as soon as I went out the door (I arrived at the peak of summer). Made me think twice for a few seconds if I should just head back home.
