Ramadan Kareem !

4th of October at dawn: Ramadan started.

This religious fasting period lasts 30 days and does not allow to drink, eat, smoke, make love or talk badly from dawn till dusk. Loud or live music is also not allowed so ... a calm and relaxing period commences in Dubai. What a change! I am following these rules (living in a Muslim country, I wanted to live in solidarity with the locals). Since it is a period where you should relect, do good and meditate, it can't harm, can it?

For Iftar (fast braking moment every evening), most of the hotels and restaurants offer a special Iftar buffet and in the Iftar tent, we can relax, smoke a shisha and play games or discuss with friends and family. Nice, no?
