Dubai Metro has just turned 10, and the entire country is celebrating.
Leave it to Dubai residents to be a wee bit sentimental on social media, but no complaints there.
Dubai-ans got all up in their feelings (as one would with a birthday)
A lovely lady had kept all her previous nol cards from way back

Another user praised the Dubai Metro for being the best Arabic teacher
Same, bro, same.
I’ll always thank #DubaiMetro for teaching me the only Arabic I know.

Nostalgia: before the ladies compartment and gold-class areas
#DubaiMetro confessions:
I miss standing right in front feeling like I am driving the metro and watch the buildings pass by .
Now, I have to either be a woman (ladies compartment) or very rich (Gold class) to experience that feeling again.— 𝘼𝙨𝙝-𝗐𝗂𝗇 𝖥𝖾𝗋𝗇-&-𝙚𝙨 (@ashshanuferns) September 9, 2019
I mean, the metro’s so loved that even car owners ditch their vehicles

Time flies!
Some even recall riding the metro during its inauguration back in 2009.
