Gone are the times when I used to keep watching Haifa Wehbe inspired Arabian makeup tutorials on YouTube, am gonna see some beautiful Arabic Women in reality...!!!! This was my state of mind when it was suddenly decided that we would be going to Dubai for a small 4 day trip in March 2013.
Dubai, a hub that connects the West & the East has a mix of different ethnic groups.The idea for a trip came up suddenly in the month of Feb & we had only a month to book our flights, hotels & the attractions.
We traveled as a family of 6 members & wanted to try the low-fare airlines Indigo which had introduced International flights only then. We had booked JW Marriott for our stay which had just been inaugurated & we got great deals.
The journey was a comfortable four and a half hour flight from Chennai. The views that greeted us when the flight was entering into the middle eastern airspace was enthralling- Arid deserts with the deep blue sea alongside.
