From Abu Dhabi to Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah to Dubai — and everywhere in between — citizens and residents united in pride and passion for the UAE to wave the flag.
While Sunday was a holiday for some in the private sector and all in the public sector, Monday is a public sector holiday with government offices and services shut to allow officials and public workers enjoy National Day — the 42nd in the UAE's history marking when the seven emirates joined together as one and created a land where the sky is the limit and where hopes and dreams come true.
Even little Ajman got in on the act, creating a new official Guinness World Record as it created the largest human greeting card mosaic on the Corniche.
Around 4,000 participants used 5,500 individual cards to create a giant mosaic covering 120 square metres celebrating National Day. The Ajman mosaic smashed the record held by a US-hamburger chain in Taipei in January 2013. That mosaic cover 101 square metres.
But even with all of the celebrations on Sunday, there was one more reason to smile: Today is National Day.
