The journey's companion and the 'ship of the desert' were present for the unforgettable night in Dubai, to announce — via a mechanical figure — a new chapter in the emirate's story, which began there, in the sands and the desert, with arish (palm leaf) houses, and has reached here, with its towering buildings, skyscrapers, iconic landmarks, and the world's tallest building, attracting millions of visitors year-round and captivating the world's eyes during New Year's celebrations. This was the case in this parade, which adorned the center of Dubai and featured spectacular scenes that will long remain in memory.
