Summer daze

The summer days in Abu Dhabi are clear, sunny, warm (39 degrees C at this writing), breezy and quiet. There is a daze that washes over the people who are left here; those of us here by choice and by chance all live it.

The streets are practically empty from sunrise to sunset. The scattering of people in the malls are visitors and me, running an errand. The grocery stores are alive with people stocking up for the night’s Iftar dinner and at night, whoa, they are super crowded with every family member negotiating for some “part sale” item.

I’ve enjoyed the pool twice this week as if it’s my own in my own backyard.

To truly enjoy this summer daze one needs to relax, breathe and go with the flow…or rather, the breeze.

Aloha,

Denise
