Half Empty
I always anticipate traffic every Sunday because it is the first working day of the week here. Hence, I typically leave my home at 7:30 in the morning to avoid traffic rush though the roads at this time are already congested.
So lately I am surprise that it takes me only 5-7 minutes to drive from my home to the office which on normal days takes at least 15 minutes.
Then I realized that it is summer now in UAE. School classes are over. The weather is extremely hot and becomes intolerable. So normally expat families go for vacation during this period of the year.
I believe that this is one of the reasons that the roads are less congested nowadays because Abu Dhabi is half empty as expats and their families fly out of the country.
And I can’t wait for my vacation too!
