The Dubai airport is very modern, the people incredibly diverse, and their TSA equivalent is very thorough. But the most exciting thing so far has been that our duck tape was confiscated in Dubai. And the sad part was it was a new roll. Oh well, easy come and easy go.
Within an hour of being here an Arabic prayer came on over the loudspeaker, apparently it is the month of Ramadan. There is an interesting struggle between truth and devotion. We easily acknowledge human errors in reasoning and understanding, especially in others, yet we also affirm absolute truth exists. Often these two compete and we struggle to balance devotion to the truth with the search for truth.
Just the ravings of a sleep deprived traveler.
RIP duck tape.
Ps. Yeah for flip phones: My phone can get texts! But it costs 50 ¢ a reply. So, if you send a text, I will be very grateful but likely wait until July to tell you so.
