As I promised yesterday here is a new story.

This paragraph is for @dswigle only:

Last year on vacation in Dubai.

And for the rest and her of course; the story goes like this:

If you live in Dubai you need permission from the government to buy alcohol.

They have special liquor stores and you get the monthly quota.

Not to mention the price. Crazy.

But as usually where there is a will there's a way.

Expats and locals find a cheaper way to get what they want. There is a place with cheaper alcohol beverages in unlimited quantities.

Well, the size of your car's trunk is the limit actually.

You need to drive two emirates further but luckily there are no borders between them.

The only drawback is the distance.

I checked. It's exactly 93 kilometers. In one direction.

You saw this photo a couple of times but now you know when I took it.

And somehow I need to get the attention to my post.

Through the desert,

passing aircraft graveyard.

Happy New Year in March.

This is the closest and only shot of the liquor store before the warning.

Locals don't want to be seen on camera buying alcohol.

That's not me but store worker who did the heavy lifting for us.

I told you about the trunk earlier and here's the proof.

The grey bags are the ones we counted after they were delivered in our room.

We bought some Russian beer too. It was on sale.

Not bad at all.

Maybe it was transported by that old plane from the third photo.

Well, that was my bedtime story for today.

Cheers, and drink responsibly, my friends.
