National Day

This weekend I celebrated National Day in Dubai. I was driving along the Jumeira Street and it was full of cars.
We left Abu Dhabi on Wednesday afternoon and drove to Dubai. The drive took us about forty five minutes. We checked into Habtoor Hotel which is near to Jumeira Walks. It is a wonderful place and it attracts a lot of people and it has a lot of shops and restaurants with an amazing beach. On Wednesday evening we drove to Jumeira Street to join the procession of cars. People were happy and danced. Suddenly a group of boys walked between the cars and they were wearing masks. They started spraying the people  who were in the cars. Other people were making smoke from the wheels by pressing the accelerator and braking at the sometime. Whereas others made music and sang. On the next street some people were taking pictures. Some of the people were wearing the UAE flag whereas others wore logos with the picture of Sheikh Khalifa. It was a funny and dangerous way to explain how we were happy on this day. At the end of the day we went to Jumeira Walks and we had a delicious dinner.
It was a wonderful day; I met new friends and old friends on this National Day.
