New Years 2012 in Dubai

This was indeed breath-taking! I was staying with my cousins in Dubai to welcome the New Year. We were tuned to Dubai TV. What we witness was indeed spectacular.



The fireworks display were held in the Burj Khalifa, renowned as the World's Tallest Tower. After watching it on the television, people outside the building where we stayed were out in the streets and making noise to welcome the New Year. The place was in Muraqqabat in Deira. Most of these residents are fellow Filipinos and Indian expats. Of course the Dubai police was making rounds that time to make sure that everything was safe.
