So I had to post this. I was driving home just now from a little hole in the wall Egyptian place (which by the way serves the best stuffed pigeon), and as I was sitting at a red light minding my own business, a car full of Emiratis pulls up next to me. They look at me a few times and then signal to roll down my window. At first I was like "Yeah whatever" and then I figured what the hell? So I rolled my window down and the all proceeded to ask me "How are you?"
At first I was taken back by the unusual display of friendliness by an Emirati towards a foreigner, but then I responded back with a nice "Very well". They all nodded, smiled, and drove away.
Hmmm...I guess after Ramadan, they're so happy to be eating again that they are friendly to everyone. Just thought that was a little odd.
