Ricky made it to town last night. For those of you who don’t know, Ricky and I worked together at ATL, and both got the wild idea to come out here. Of course, I got picked up 3 weeks earlier, so I will still have seniority over him...ha! I picked him up at the hotel he is staying at on Sheik Zayed Rd. It’s much nicer than the Mirdif Villa Rod and I shared for 3 weeks…he’s got tv, phone, internet at the French Bakery next door, restaurants in close walking distance…and it’s not under the flight path of the airport. We are extremely jealous.
That being said, he is living in the SECOND ugliest building on Sheikh Zayed Rd. My realtor is next door in the UGLIEST building. (see photo above; Ricky is in the building on the right)
I took Ricky to Festival City Mall for his phone and eye test for the driver’s license; Told him what to expect for the next week and then Rod and I told him about all the stuff I couldn’t tell him before or he would have never got on the plane. Just kidding...it’s all good; just different.
It is nice to hear another American voice, and Southern, at that!
