Bungee jumping

My mother seeing my 'sad plight" these days often ask, "what do you have after working "away" all these years?"

Well, at first that adds coal to the fire of disappointment that is already burning in me. But then after a moment of reflection, I feel may be I do not have much to show off, still I do have something to think and smile about. More than working, infact I had enjoyed walking around the streets of Dubai on holidays.

Here is a glimpse from around the festival of 2008.





The Grand Dubai festival. There were so many things happening at so many place most of us missed a lot of things.

Here is a peek at the Bungee jumping. YES! they were here too, the sky breaking gypsies :) the bungee jumping crew with their towering crane and windbreaking tents.

Everyone who was 'light' enough to take the plunge into the abbra, jumped and felt the pang when the cruising belts from the crane reined the fall in, just above the water. Perhaps thats one single moment the AED250/- (the cost of the jump) spent was well worth it.

The rest of it is like hanging up there and saying wow! Dubai..upside down view from a blood shot eye...:) Some even think, if only their mama could see them hanging like that, at the mercy of the crew ::), with heart in mouth. Most of the jumpers were tourist visiting Dubai, though.

It was fun watching it..:) you may ask.. Did i Jump...:) No, not this time...:):)
