First thoughts of Yemen
So after a few hours on the plane we landed in Dubai airport where we had to switch and the airport which is like modern to the max. I really wanted to go and gerrout of the airport to go to sharjah which is apparently the Islamic capital of UAE and also main reason I wanted to visit Salah Bukhatir and pray behind him but ah well qadr.
After being exposed to the luxury of dubai airport in all its high techness and westernisation, landing in Sanaa airport was a bit of a drastic change. The airport is more like a military base, it had old war planes and dont even think you can call that a runway, more like a piece of tarmac on the ground. And the airport was just a big shelter thing. Exactly like the airports you get in sub indian continent except arab version.
