Tuesday, April 2, and I’m off to Dubai for the ASTA International Destination Expo. I’ve wanted to see this new city and the IDE provided the perfect reason to go. Adding a week in Jordan to the end of the conference and not sure which destination I am more excited about. First world problem, as the say.
United Airlines flys through Washington where we experienced a 2 hour delay making a 13 hour flight into a 15 hour flight. Thank God for movies and airplane TV.
It’s April 3 and here in my hotel, Crowne Plaza Festival City, I have a view of Dubai Creek and the city skyline with the Burj Khalifi in the distance. This is the tallest tower in the wold- at the moment. What has surprised me is the hazy sky. I thought it was pollution but turns out its the blowing sand. Now that’s a problem we don’t have in Chicago!
