Let me just continue Seabee’s previous post. The Dubai Airport is truly staggering, especially if you come from a not-so-glittering-yet-efficient-and-decently-run airport that Chennai (MAA) is. And, DXB is tiringly big. Arriving passengers have about a mile and a half to walk, just to get to the visa collection area. Throw in a few stairs (oh, well, Escalators) and a long queue at the passport control, and you have what’s a brilliant way of keeping me hungry for a long time.

But, well, introductions, first. I’m Chandru, till recently a resident of Chennai, India.

Chennai, they say, is one of the best airports in India. And one-heck-of-a-city. I’d like to think so. But, Dubai will be home, I think, for a little while more. Give me a few days (or weeks, more likely) to explore this city, and some time to settle in, walk around, get my bearings. And I shall blog this city up for you all.
