Dubai Rocks!!

Its raining in Dubai. Its raining. Its raining. I find it very captivating to see people running with polythene bags on their head to save themselves from getting wet. You know, its not a usual sight in this part of the world. The whole impression of the city has changed. Roads and the buildings seem unusual, people look different and definitely everyone get into a different mood altogether.

I'd rather step out. And just tilt my head towards the sky and let the rain drops fall on my face. Its so invigorating. Liberating.

Play in the rain. That reminds me of my childhood. Whenever it used to rain we used to go out in the parking lot. There was a slope for the cars to come in and out and thats where the water used to get collected. We used to take our shoes in our hand and splash in the water. And ofcourse how can I forget the paper boats. It was like a ritual. And to think about it maybe the water used to get collected because of the excessive paper boats which used to clog the drain.

Its feels like nature is stretching out its hands & reaching out for us.
