Dubai sunset

In early 2012 I found myself back in Dubai, for the first time in thirty years.

Much had changed. I could barely find my way around the city.  but the sunsets were still blood red.

This photo sums up Dubai as I know it.  The sunset, the modern high-rise and the cranes of construction, and yet on the Creek the wooden ferries still ply their trade and on the shore workmen still build traditional wooded Dhows.

I often wonder what would have become of me if I had stayed on in Dubai.
