It’s kind of a big deal.
I can’t say that personally I’m excited for the Formula One Grand Prix… but this town sure seems to be. I couldn’t even tell you when it is… but I know it’s coming up. There’s a countdown on a big billboard along the Corniche keeping track of the moments until the grand event.
I do know however, that the festivities kicked off last night, and I was there.
In honor of the Brazil bit of the circuit, Abu Dhabi decided to party Brazilian style with live music, a parade, and Formula One themed booths. (I’ll let you decided which of the three I bailed on).
One funny little cultural bit is that the Brazilian dancers wore colorful body suits under their skimpy little costumes to avoid baring any skin in public. Love it.
The weather was fantastic and the event was the perfect finish to a fantastic day at work.
