Greetings from Abu Dhabi

After over 13 hours in the air, we finally touched down in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The city is the capital of the U.A.E. and boasts an impressive skyline and incredible structures. While we won't have time to actually tour the city, we have gotten a brief glimpse and it seems like a world-class one to say the least. Immediately upon arriving, I checked to see what the current temperature was and not to my surprise at all, it was 108 degrees! Yep, no joke, 108 degrees. Good thing we won't be leaving the airport while we wait for our connecting flight to New Delhi, India. Another super cool thing that we noticed when we landed was the air traffic control tower. It was no just a standard one like you see in the U.S., but instead this wavy, all glass structure out near the runways. It definitely looked like something out of a ski-fi movie, but nonetheless, very cool.


Much more to follow once we arrive in India and get our trip started there!
