The drive was only an hour from our place, yet worlds apart. Abu Dhabi feels like a small, completed, older city, where as Dubai is still to come. Immediately, Jeff and I noticed the greenery - it wasn't Vancouver but it was definitely greener than Dubai.
We enjoyed walking around the city, learning about the emerging cultural developments and just relaxing at our beach hotel.
