A Definite Leaning!

Behind this 'leaning to the right' palm tree...lies the futuristic entrance way into our state of the arts metro station. Pristine platforms, pristine trains, pristine security police...the list is endless. Sometimes its great to just do something different

It's where our travels of the morning took us. No cars, no traffic, no stress, no road rage....just an orderly and sensible meandering through the station to the platform and a leisurely ride to our destination.

Fellow travellers choosing their travel carriages...one allowing women and children only to enter in, the 'Gold Service' if you want to travel first class, the sardine special if you don't fall into the first two categories!

No eating on the metro, no carrying of fish, (if you think you can nip off at Shindagah and do your fish market shopping....you'll need to find another way home!) No excess luggage (if you think you can come from the airport with your three large suitcases, think again!) No jostling, no pushing, no touching! Oh No, no, no.

Nevertheless the ride is not to be missed....there are definitely some interesting characters that ply the metro on a daily basis, faces etched with stories waiting to be told!
I could make this my blip challenge..a face a day, into the spotlight, complete with story!

Alas, a thought that's come too late....am flying to UK tomorrow so will be probably be joining many of my fellow blippers on their 'rainy day exploits' looking for that elusive ray of sunshine!

Oh to be a palm tree.....with just a little leaning to the right!

Happy blipping Everyone.




It's hard to imagine Dubai can be so civilised!
