Photos, top to bottom: Putting the finishing touches on a giant 40th birthday cake; Andy can barely contain his excitement in front of this giant UAE-shaped flag made out of fruit and vegetables.
The Emirates turned the big 4-0 yesterday, and it was QUITE the party.
In all honesty, silly string in our building's elevators was about the closest we got to the action. But we know you may want to see more, so here are a few gems from around the web....
Cars and light shows and malls, oh my!
The official site for the UAE's 40th.
A video showcasing National Day products (many of which have been hanging from every crack, corner, and crevice at Emy's workplace since mid-November. That prize ribbon featuring Sheik Khalifa's face? She wore it everyday for two weeks.)
A solar powered wheelchair gets in on the action.
Past celebrations haven't skimped on the excitement.
Congratulations, UAE! May the next 40 be just as peace-filled and promising. cheers, andy&emy
PS - Someone else celebrated a birthday yesterday, too :)
