Define Dubai
OK folks I have a project coming up where this random question could help enormously.
What is it that defines Dubai for you?
things like the two Burj's, the creek, malls etc but what for you defines Dubai, what is it that would instantly bring Dubai to your mind. Brunches? Khandooras, Blacked out Patrols?
I ask because I know what defines dubai for me and the life I live in the city but i have no idea what for example defines dubai for a 20 something single or an older married couple close to retirement.

Disneyland for adults is oft quoted, a film set where nothing is as it seems? A cultural centre for islamic art and theology?

It's just a place to earn money.
Take your two buckets and try your best to fill the cash one, then get out of the place.

Re: Define Dubai
Don't assume I am talking about all ex pats. 'Locals' and the Crowd that used to holiday in Benidorm that now call it home.
Edit,
The ones that I see buying stupidly large bottles of Vodka on their credit card whilst trying to woo over the Emirates trolley Dollys.
The ones that spend more that 60% of their income on a car
The ones that borrow up to their tits to pay for their accommodation instead of something smaller to keep up with the Jones's
