On arrival my first thoughts was the difference in weather.While it was snowing back in London,Dubai was very hot with a slight warm breeze.I felt quite hot because I had a big jacket on.I liked the way the airport was built and structured but it looked more like a newly posh hotel.The people and the way they dressed was very interesting beacuse it looked traditional.Consciously i kinda felt that the people will be quite friendly but they were aslo kind,I first noticed this upon arrival of the gallery where the workers helped us carry our luggages and they also provided us with food and drink.
Overall I was most impressed with the quality of the archetecture and the buildings but it was astonishing on how clean and organised everything was.

Hey Offscreen team!
So great to see you made it over safe and sound, despite London’s snowy send-off! Makes it that much easier to appreciate the sunny skies in the Middle East.
Looking forward to reading all about tomorrow’s adventures… until then, time for a good night’s sleep.
big hugs,

Just seen some photos of you at a table and it looks like you’re doing something arty. You kept that one quiet Regan!.
Bit of an anxious start with the snow and I’m so pleased that it didn’t cause much of a problem. The adventure begins. Looking forward to following it all. Isn’t this technology amazing.

It’s stopped snowing here. Yes - I just wish England was clean and organised.
