Road to Dubai

Water was still standing on many roads today. There is not a great sewer system here because there is so rarely a need for one.

In a search for storm damage I took the road to Dubai and drove through water for over a mile. Given that the curbs are about 6 inches high, there is no place where the water goes higher. It was quite funny to watch those who are not used to driving in water. Cars and even LandCruisers stopped and turned around rather than drive through 3-4 inches of water.
