This week’s theme: Important

The completion of Dubai’s first railway system, the Dubai Metro is an important milestone of Dubai’s growth as a city.

As any Dubai resident knows, travelling from A to B can be a mission – the traffic is getting worse. That’s set to change when a driverless, fully automated urban rail network is finished. The Dubai Metro system, when built, will be the longest fully automated rail system in the world.

Wow, Grace, that is a great idea for the theme! And, it not only looks important to those living in Dubai, but very impressive to me! I love the photo! Excellent! (and may it make your world of travel MUCH easier!)

wow amazing photo! How did you get in there to take it?
Indeed a great mode of transportation! I am surprised they hadn’t done one already!
I am soo sorry I have been so busy this week and at a horse show this weekend (leaving again in a few minutes). I haven’t had time to do your meme (Maya’s tag). Will do it I promise! ;)

That’s important all right, and an excellent shot.
Thinking of your recent flood – how would it cope?

Urban travel is so difficult, highways so crowded at certaain times of the day. Very important to find such practical solutions–and once found, to put them in place.
