Show me more about Abu Dhabi!



Above find the link to this amazing time lapse of
the city Abu Dhabi.  Abu Dhabi is not only a city,
but one of the seven states that make up the
United Arab Emirates.




I have heard Abu Dhabi described by an Emirati
as a paradise with year round sunshine, pristine
beaches, spectacular sand dunes and a
pulsating cosmopolitan lifestyle.
                                                                                It is this and so much more!




Arab Emirates are a federation of seven individual
states. The states are ruled by emirs, a general or
commander, a prince.

Founded between the 7th and 8th centuries, the
Trucial States granted the United Kingdom control
of their defense and foreign affairs in treaties
 signed in the 19th century


In 1971, six of the states: Abu Zaby, 'Ajman, Al Fujayrah, Ash Shariqah, Dubai  and Umm al Qaywayn all merged to form the UAE.  The seventh Ra's al
Khaymahjoined the UAE in 1972.

The country is 39 years old December 2, and in the past three years there has
been an initiative, a reform with a goal date of 2030.  Growth in infrastructure,
education,green building, an very impressive region, an almost utopia of
commerce and family.


Where in the world is Abu Dhabi?   If you went to high school in my era, the map has changed a bit.  There is a red arrow pointing to the UAE.  Abu Dhabi is a tropical desert, palm trees the  gulf - beautiful caribbean color waters.

Excited to share all the riches of the area that we uncover!  Exciting events scheduled for this year...you'll be amazed!

Three Words:  You Should Visit!
