Looks like you are set to bring in the new year! Is it hard to get alcohol there? Or is it just super expensive? I know when I was in Singapore it was ridiculously expensive. I did find a place that had my favorite beer in the world on tap though. That was nice!
In Dubai you need license to buy alcohol (bottles etc), but there are a lot of bars where you can drink the price is ok, not cheap, but not expensive. If you want alcohol that’s cheap you can go to other emirates where selling/buying of alcohol is totally legal. But you have to be careful because in some emirates it’s illegal. For ex. I had to go to Um Al Quain, another emirate to buy these but it’s a huge place and the alcohol is cheap!
