The Monkey Guide
Oh, how I love sitting down at my computer, locating this trusty old Microsoft Word document, and updating it for soon-to-arrive visitors:

(In fairness, not all my visitors to Dubai are monkeys, nor do they need a guide on how to fly into what is ultimately a modern and tourist-friendly airport. However, I originally compiled this guide for my mother - who onced missed a transatlantic flight by 24 hours because she “had a different date in her mind” - so it’s targeted at the lowest common denominator.)
I love sharing this place I love with people I love, so the fact that I have three good friends coming to Dubai for New Year’s - three friends who have somehow managed to resist 4.5 years’ worth of insistent ”COME VISIT ME!” pleas until now - has put me into quite the frenzy of planning and excitement.
Who knows, maybe my anal-rententive info-compiling could be the beginning of a niche travel-writing career… THE MONKEY GUIDE, coming soon to a city near you?!
