Dubai (2) initial impressions

 

It takes me about eleven and a half hours to fly to Dubai. This flight is the most memorable one of all my trips, making it hard for me to forget.

I know that all airports are cold, and I know that it is also cold on the flight. This time it was cool. Let me start to have a migraine shortly after the flight, and then start to vomit Qi, Qi, Ba. I couldn't help it, but I needed to take painkillers. I gave me two pills and said I could take them for five hours. As a result, I did not take them for five minutes. No way. Call the flight attendant by pressing the bell. The flight attendant said that apart from giving me some electrolytic water to prevent me from dehydration, I could just give me another blanket, and there was no other way. As a result, all the electrolytic water was spit out and four or five airsick bags were used. I lost one, the flight attendant took two, and finally left one under the seat.

Fortunately, there are not many luggage, but the airport in Dubai is lined up with a single character. We probably have a very long exit from the plane, so I couldn't go there. I guess I 've been walking for half an hour, and I still have an automatic track in front of it. I couldn't help asking the airport staff. The man said impatiently, you just followed the signs. So let's go again. Finally arrived at the customs. Customs clearance: Get your luggage. It was found that the turntable has not started to turn.

Slow and slow. This is my first impression of arriving in Dubai.

I came out late. No food on the plane, weak people. When I got out of the plane and took a few steps, I wanted to vomit again, find the bathroom, and vomit a big fight. After finishing the arrangement, no one on the same plane was found. After taking this long journey and queuing for customs clearance, the luggage turntable has not started to turn around for so long. What kind of speed is this? I guess whether the plane is parked far away from the turntable. I have been away for so long.

The sky in Dubai is gray. The annual rainfall in Dubai is only 12 cm. Of course, it is impossible for me to encounter a good thing of overcast and rainy days. In addition, Dubai airport contacts are outside. When I got out of the airport, the hot air rushed up. Although it didn't make me feel like my eyes were faulty like Beijing, I still felt very low pressure and overwhelmed my chest.

I was planning to save money and take a bus to the hotel. Because the body is too weak, every step is effort-consuming, simply go for rent. I also checked in advance that it would take me 15 minutes to get a taxi to my hotel, about $15. There are also black cars at the airport, because I have been warned on the internet, I suggest you make a regular taxi for the tables.

When I was waiting for luggage, I heard an airport staff member chatting with a friend who was probably his friend. They said that even in Dubai, they could use US dollars, however, it is recommended that you use the local currency dhm dirham. The exchange rate at the airport is the same as that at the bank, so it is better to go to the hotel for exchange. I have checked that the US dollar vs. dirham is 1 to 3.67, so I don't have to worry about the exchange rate at the airport.

I called the taxi. The amount displayed when I arrived at the hotel was 36.5 dhm. I said that I only have USD, and the driver said that I had $15. I gave him a $20 account. Did he find me a $ account? He told me to give me my dhm account. I didn't know how to call it. Then he gave me two yuan worth of money. Think about it, I have another ten yuan account, and I have to go back to another one. The hotel doorman had already opened the taxi door. I was a little afraid that the taxi driver would lie to me. I told the doorman that I gave him $20, I don't know how much he should find for me. The doorman smiled and told me that $20 is 70 yuan diram. I should find you yuan. Now, the driver couldn't help it. He gave me three yuan worth of coins. I don't know whether the driver is hard to count or whether I really want to be greedy for a cheap price. At that time, I was weak enough to figure out the southeast and northwest regions. I didn't feel like he gave me less than five cents. I thought I could just calculate a little more than ten yuan fare, it is a little less than the first $15.

The hotel exchange rate is. 5. After I check-in, I also exchanged another $ one hundred. Later, I found out that I really got a big deal !!! It is not very big, but it is depressing. When GG arrived at the hotel at night, he said that at the airport, he exchanged one hundred US dollars, and the exchange rate was. 6! Later, in the street, at a travel agency, I found that the exchange rate was 3.6 or 3.62, which I knew at first, and sometimes I couldn't hear it.

In fact, in Dubai, the most cost-effective place for currency exchange is a bank or a special currency exchange point. The exchange price of 3.665 is not far from the 3.67 I found online. So before the final settlement, I went to the currency exchange point to redeem diram. After all, this is my biggest expense in Dubai and I don't want to lose money on the exchange rate.

Why is the sky in Dubai gray? This is what I have always been worried about.

Dubai depends on the Arabian Bay, which is also a coastal city. This place is really special. Even if it is a desert, there is no vegetation. All Trees and lawns are artificial. Otherwise, they are the surface of the desert.

I asked a taxi driver. He said, do you know the city in the desert? The sky is caused by the dust. Although I was a bit skeptical, I also read about the sandstorm in Dubai. What I doubt is that the dust volume in Dubai is far lower than that in Beijing, because I have a tester next to me that is extremely sensitive to dust. My GG is sensitive to dust. When I arrived in Beijing, my eyes were blowing together, but nothing happened in Dubai.

Another taxi driver replied to me. I thought it was quite correct. He gave me a smile and said, Oh, It's a fog. Do you believe it, that's Misty! The surface temperature in Dubai has been forty-seven to fifty degrees Celsius. I thought I was wrong. It may be to forty degrees Celsius. How can we survive in such a climate?

Dubai does not have fresh water. All domestic water comes from the purification of sea water, and the cost is quite high. From the Dubai Museum, I learned that in the city of Dubai, the amount of fresh water required by all artificial vegetation each day is several times the amount of water consumed by human life-such a high surface temperature, no liquid water can be stored, and all the surface water, including sweat from people, is evaporated into the air. Therefore, in Dubai, neither wet land nor sweaty people can be seen.
