Dubai - January 2010

How lucky I was to be invited back yet again to take part in four school inspections, leading three of them. I visited schools in the city of Dubai and also 40 minutes away, travelling to a village in the desert.

When I arrived in Dubai on January 1st, all were still in festive mood with families from many Arab countries enjoying a holiday at the hotel.

A truly momentous occasion was the opening of Burj Khalifa (Dubai) the highest building in the world at 828 metres. The six-lane traffic came to a halt, as we all watched the amazing fireworks and the ceremonial opening.
