Be afraid of the old, they'll inherit your soul

Across the red sea , looking at Aqaba, Jordan and its famous Aqaba flag. The Aqaba Flag used to hold the Guinness world record for tallest unsupported flagpole, but in recent years has been relegated (by Turkey or Abu Dhabi) to hold 3rd place.

Which has makes me think / rant about two thing: 1. UAE needs to chill with their world record obsession. And 2. i'm a little bitter my Israeli citizenship prevents my from entering the UAE, and seeing the world's longest line of sandwiches, or attending the world's largest same first name gathering. what a shame.
