Fog???

Fog? What is he going on about you might say? The departure of Kathryn has sent him mad!
No! FOG!
But it's Dubai I hear you say... what about fog?

Well, Dubai fogs up at this time of the year. Yes, it might be 25degC but that doesn't stop the fog from rolling in. Now, fog by itself is ok, harmless enough, but coupled with a desire for everyone here to speed (I mean, 120kph just isn't fast enough and ' you've got to let those horses run') then 140-160kph on the road when you can't see the third light post in front of you (and you can't see the top of the second) means bad business (and that only on the local streets, wait til you get on the 'open road' on the way to Abu Dhabi, the fog is thicker and everyone drives faster, only difference IS, they drive with their hazard lights flashing the entire way! (unfortunately no photos of that, I'd rather try to drive the car and avoid the other drivers).


Anyone, yes it fogs here, as soon as the temp gets below about 27 degC. A couple of photos from 2 November 2006 and 7th November 2006 for you. Enjoy!
