| A Contrasting Day |
Today was my long awaited trip out of Yemen, the first leg on my long journey home. I specifically packed my camera in my carry on lugage because you just never know. When I got to the hotel, I had found that I had taken only pictures, and they really could not show two more contrasting images of the middle east.
Here is the first picture. It was taken on the first airplane ride of the day and is of a typical Yemeni village.
Fast forward a few hours and I am on a bus in Dubai passing the creation of the world's largest building.

These two photos are unreal! Especially after reading the link you posted on all the construction that is happening in Dubai right now...
