Tabletop Mountains

A dramatic change of scenery as we leave the pointed mountain tops around Yanqul.

Someone has bulldozed the tops of the mountains – could it be something to do with the huge lumps of marble we keep seeing going by on the back of trucks? Or is it just nature’s way?

Mosque Visit

We were allowed to look inside this amazing mosque when we stopped to refill our water bottles.

Fortress

Izmael`s family showed us around their town and shared stories about it’s cultural heritage. We were happy to see our children playing cannon ball together despite their language and cultural differences.

Omani Hospitality

As we were looking for lunch we met Izmael who invited us to stay at his house and meet his family and friends. We felt very priviledged  indeed to have had an insight into their lifestyle and traditions and enjoyed learning about their cultural beliefs and family life in an Arabian Islamic country.
