White Out

This past weekend we invaded the Emirate's Palace. You've seen it on Fast 7 but we party there in real life. Hahahaha. That is what you call "flexing." I have only been to Emirate's Palace this one time. I do want to visit again for high tea so that I can get some tea with gold flakes in it.

Fun Facts I Have Learned About UAE

*The lower the tag number on a car, the more important the owner of the car is. Single and double digit license plate numbers are probably a part of the Sheik's family. (I pulled up next to 10 before and nearly broke my neck trying to see who was inside. I couldn't keep up because they do not have to obey speed limits or any other laws)
*The left hand is known as the hygiene hand. There should never be any hand to mouth contact made with the left hand.
*Napkins are called "tissue." Kleenex is commonly used at restaurants and other public places to wipe hands.
*There are no addresses here. To get around, you better drop a Google Pin or save some coordinates.
*The restroom is more commonly called "the toilet."
*Burgers are just burgers. DO NOT say "Ham"burgers.
*Call to Prayer can be heard all over every city. Public places, including malls have male and female prayer rooms.
*Only 20% of the Emirate population are actually Emirates.
