21st century living in NL
On a little-known island called Nurai, located northeast of Abu Dhabi city, yet another rediculously extravagant luxury project is started to realize an exclusive residential private estate. The project includes the development of 36 water villas that are sure to be snapped up by Saudi Princes and oil sheiks because they will probably be the only ones who can afford them.
But that aspect of this project is not what interests us.
With some fantasy the possibilities for countries like the Netherlands are mind-bubbling.
One problem; the Dutch have been talking about their own Sea World for decades now and probably will continue to do so for some decades more.
In the meantime in Abu Dhabi they just do it.
