I've heard of Dubai doing crazy things to get the attention of the rest of the world. But the opening of the much awaited Atlantis Hotel redefined the meaning of a party. The resort, the most lavish in the world, was opened amidst much fanfare a few days back and really set a new record which I am sure will not be touched for a very very long time to come.
The party was organized at a cost of 20 Million USD, just for a night of drinks and fireworks. The fireworks at the party was much more extravagant that that at the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony and was the only party that has ever been seen from space!
Amongst others at the party were Denzel Washington and Charlize Theron. Apparently, Dubai seems to remain untouched and unaffected by the ongoing worldwide economic crisis. Spending nearly what I could use for a couple of generations on a single night....well..what's the word...crazy???
