Ten Norwegians worked in a transport organisation in an Arabian city.One day, they decided to make a trip to Dubai, a major tourist city in the Middle East, which was a city of excitement and attracted millions of travellers from all over the world every year.
They went on a 20mile hike across the desert and reached Dubai. After the tiring journey, they felt exhausted and uncomfortable. But when they saw the beautiful scenery in Dubai, they all went wild with joy.
They found a hostel which provided cheap accommodations. Two porters helped them with their luggage.
After a night's sleep, they went to visit the city. They were amazed at various kinds of entertainment equipment and activities, such as gymnastics, snowboarding, snowrafting and whitewater rafting.In order to get a feeling of adventure, they decided to try the extreme sports —bungee jumping, which was thrilling. They had great fun and felt very cheerful for realizing their goal of risking.
Finally the time came when they had to say goodbye to Dubai. They rent a car to go home. Unfortunately, on their way back, the car broke down. What's worse, it ran out of oil. They felt anxious and hopeless. They needed fuel and help, but nobody turned up.
Everyone was in deep sadness and they had to give up the car and walk back. They got a better understanding of the philosophy of life. That was — life was full of ups and downs. You never know what would happen.
