First of all Dubai is a mess. Dillagii, I know you love the place, but I can't take it.

And they do construction work all night. And there is not only a lot of construction work of skyscrapers, but they are also frantically working on the roads which need to be widened even more so that all the cars can stop being caught in jams for hours.

But in the particular traffic jam that I got caught in, it was outside a hotel nightclub so a lot of cars and taxis were lining up to pick up or drop people off. There was only one lane to get through that place and once we passed the nightclub, it was fine. But that took an additional 30 minutes to travel about 1/4 mile.

I'm actually heading back up to Dubai on Friday to see a concert. I hope I don't regret it.

So are you staying at Burj-Al-Arab? :P

I know Burj-Al-Arab is in Dubai and not in Abu-Dhabi
