Friends

After over a year in Dubai, I finally got to meet old friends.  No, not the one who you pretend who you are not.  Those kind who they'd take you in even in the middle of the night, even if they too have their own set of setbacks and problems kind of friends.

Reynold and Marla are friends from high school.  While Marlyn and I are more closer than Reynold and me, when we met them for the first time here in Dubai after probably over a year being here, it just felt so good.

We first had a planned meeting about March.  When Rey was preparing to leave for his Annual holiday.  Yep, we do have those kind of things here!

Anyway, it was fun catching up.  We went to see the dancing fountain at the Dubai Mall, at the foot of Burj Khalifa.  You read it right.  The world's tallest building.  And had a nice dinner at Fridays. Rey got to treat us.  Way to go!

Today, after Rey's vacation, we came down to visit him in Abu Dhabi.  It was fun to catch up once more.  Parang di ka nauubusan ng kwento. Seemed like we went to Abu Dhabi just to chat. haha! It was really to hot to go out anyway.  So I'd rather that we stay inside the Mall and eat and eat and eat some more...

I wish I could do that with another friend.  So much for wishful thinking.

Here's some pictures from the Dubai Mall/ Burj Khalifa visit last March.
