The Palms

I was just looking for info on The Palms, a giant land reclamation project in the United Arab Emirates.

I found this and this first, and then finally landed on what I was looking for. Interesting and ambitious project. This is not anything official, but it has a really good animation of what it should look like eventually. Here's a news item on the official website about it.


Pretty amazing to look at it. I'd like to go there some day...

Something I ran across here is "Take wisdom from the wise - not everyone who rides a horse is a jockey." A good piece of advice...it should be remembered when having someone work on one's computer and car, I think! :)
