I am back from our company trip to Dubai.

Dubai is a fantastic place. Its my first time in the middle east and it left a great impression.

The whole city struck me as a proof-of-concept kind of city. They decided they wanted to do something great and they went ahead and did it. Even better, they did it without much red-tape.

From impressive buildings like Burj Khalifa (Wikipedia) being the tallest building in the world to the biggest mall in the world, everything is just impressive.

I have been watching all the videos from Network Field Day 2. Lots of interesting information.

I just got my first ASA 5510 installed in my rack, which im looking forward to playing with. I still need to get better with this appliance and for me, the only way is to mess around with it.

I will also be setting up a VMware server to run some virtual desktops which i can use to connect to the ASA.

Right now, i better get busy working.
