Saying Bye to Dubai.

I have started packing. Of course Aisha is 'helping' in every way she can. Yesterday she peed inside the box! Thankyou Aisha. Luckily there was nothing inside or I'll have to take all of the stuff out and wash it before packing it again.

To my dear blogger friends, I don't think I'll be putting a post for a week or two until we get settled in  India. I'll have a terrible time, with Aisha having stranger anxiety, no a/c to put her to sleep, the constant power cuts and the mosquito bites. She will be having more trouble in getting adapted to the new atmosphere. But I hope she will enjoy the greenery and the pleasant climate, the stroll with her grandparents (once she becomes friendly with them) and the animals  (squirrels, peacocks, sparrows, cats, dogs, lizards, dragon flies, butterflies and of course the mosquitoes.)to muse her.

UAE flags at our (Landlord's) home.

December 2nd is UAE's national day - the only day that we celebrate apart from the religious holidays and new years (Hijrah and Gregorian). Its been 40 years since the seven kingdoms got united and became the United Arab Emirates under the leadership of H.H Shaikh Zayed (late). So you can see the National flags every where, celebrating the spirit of union for 40 years. Aisha gets thrilled to see the flags, flying high in the air.
UAE was were I grew up and UAE was there at every point of my success. I wouldn't have reached here if UAE was not there for me. UAE is my second home. And I hope it will be a second hope for Aisha too.
