Ramadan Readiness

Ramadan starts on Monday, the first of September, the day the kids start at their new school JESS. For Max, aged 3, it will be his first ever day at school. They start them young here.

It will be our third Ramadan in Dubai and I suspect, now that we know the ropes, it will be significantly easier than the previous two.

I went up on the roof of our new villa to take some photos. Below is the Burj Dubai, the tallest free standing structure in the world and not even finished. The skyscrapers surrounding it are all about the size of Canary Wharf tower in London.

Most of our neighbours leave in slightly more impressive villas than we do...

Still, this is our (shared) garden. Not bad.
