On my way back from Europe, in search of cheap rates, I had booked a flight which had a 9 hour stopover in Dubai. I was completely clueless what will I do and had made up my mind that I was going to get bored to death gazing at giant airport terminal. Though there are spot visas available in Dubai, going out for sightseeing was completely out of question. Dubai is famous as the playground of rich and famous and I was neither of them. Forget being rich, I was already travelling on a shoe string budget and going around this ostentatious city seemed a bad idea.
