Generous UAE man
I just got this email from a friend…
A European family wanted to spend some time in the Dubai desert on a cool afternoon. Since they did not own a 4×4 they decided to park their car on the side of the road and camp close by.
A local man driving by with his 4×4 noticed the car on the side of the road and foot prints leading into the desert.
Out of concern he ventured in with his 4×4 and followed the trail to make sure everything was ok. Not too far away he came by the family happily camping and taking pictures.
He greeted them and welcomed them to Dubai with some traditional local coffee he kept in his car.
Who could this kind and generous local man be?
Sheikh Mohammad bin Rashid Al Makoum - the ruler of Dubai, and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates.

Does the sheik go around with a pro photographer all the time???
Don’t understand what the family was doing in the middle of the desert. Are deserts the in-thing for tourism now?
um, i think this was a press stunt more than anything else. had me fooled for an instant too.
