Psalmist with a camera

From A to B in Half a Lifetime!

Its taken this week to put into perspective the enormity of the development that has gone on in this city over the past few decades.

The exclusive Meydan Race Course and the rustic Camel Race Track
The pristine Shopping Mall and the bustling Local Souk
The 21st century Beach Facilities and the ancient Dhow traders Creekside

The camel and the four wheel drive
The 'sit up and beg' bicycle and the Harley Davidson
The Padmini and the Porsche

The 7 star dining and the falafel stand
The towering Burj and the barasti houses
The 6 lane Highway and the off road dirt tracks

The Ac cooling units and the traditional wind towers
The well dressed Company Director and the soberly dressed street cleaner
The 10 bedroom villas and the bedouin tent

A city of infinite contrasts........surviving side by side!!!

Who needs a time machine??

Happy Blipping Everyone!
