Home finally!

Well after a very long 15 or so hours in the air, I am finally back in Canada. Got to see Perrin on my way through and we went around Dubai and saw some sites. I saw the Burj Dubai the world's tallest building. Oh and the CN Tower still holds the rcords for the world's tallest free standing structure. The Burj is taller but it's a skyscraper.

It's a very odd feeling being in what is supposed to be a Muslim society and yet very western in most aspects. The malls are massive and are excessively large. The prices of things are generally the same as here.

The irony of things is that funny enough you can say the word Christmas in a Muslim society but you cannot say it in ours...you can also advertise it openly!

The locals at the markets are always willing to see you a pair of Oakleys or a Rolex watch, of course they are all fake. Good deal, my friend, good deal.

Well this is probably all I will write till I hear back over on boxing day!

So have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Until then here are some more photos.
