Happy Anniversary!

Anniversaries are a good time to remember. But it's not the blog's anniversary so why did I remember this blog, you ask.
It's the Ninth of September- Happy Anniversary, Red and Green lines!
blue=supplement. orange= weekly issue
Read. came out with a supplement today. I think I'll send it home to an uncle who used to live in Dubai so he can see what the improved public transport system is like.

What not to do when you want to save time

Note to self (and all and sundry)
When taking the Metro, do not think you can get places faster by changing lines. Tried it yesterday. We took the Green line to Union, then the Red to Khalid bin al Walid (bypassing all the Green stations between those two and saving time- or so we thought!), and then onto the Green again. The people who were with us on the train till Union and were once more fellow passengers from Khalid bin al Walid smiled at our foolishness.
Will probably need to test this at least once more.
However- lesson (for the time being) learned.
