Boating for pleasure?
I love boats. Always have. I joined the Navy when I was 18 and even that didn’t put me off. My first foray into ‘boating’ was when my Dad picked up a couple of old, leaky canoes and we spent a good while in the garage, stinking of ...
Summer is here.
Summer has officially arrived............and it’s a strange affair. Throughout May the temperature was slowly creeping up, but as it was only a degree or so at a time it kind of went unnoticed. Right up to the point that you left the house, walked ...
TIme for a change? Don't panic, we're not moving!
I'm thinking of changing our blog site... this isn't really a travel-based blog anymore and so wouldn't provide any useful information for other travellers on Travelpod...any ideas? Alhumdulillah! It's the weekend! Time to enjoy being with my children ...
Early days
... routine and we're in the house with no idea what to do with ourselves. We're tired as well I think. First coffee in Oman...albeit Costa... We can walk to the local shopping centre from the house. The kids and I went to the local grocery shop ...
Hello, remember us?
Well, it dawned on me that we have not written anything here for over a year now. I may have to redo the opening blurb...apparently it was something about ramblings about our adventures here. I had in mind that we would be writing excitedly about every ...
From the Oman end.
Well, I've been here just over two weeks and I can honestly say it has been................interesting. I love waking up and opening the curtains to a clear sky every morning. I enjoy never having to wear a jumper. I can go for a swim every morning, walk ...
Seeb Souk
A few photos from the souk at Seeb (souk is Arabic for a market), where I went and shopped with my family. The different souks around the place are bustling with life and the energy of trade pulsing through the small streets and shops. As a treat our ...
Easy morning then long drive back to Hilal’s
... Late morning wake-up. We were in no hurry to make it back to Hilal's house as we had no worried driving in the dark in Oman any more. I did a little packing and made it to the restroom before the boys could go crazy in there. For most of the morning I ...
Camping in the sands to a restful day @ house
... TV while talking to all their friends. Since they did not make any juice I had a Mountain Dew which is very popular here in Oman. We reached their at halftime of the Paraguay Japan World Cup match. It was tied 0-0. When it got darker in the 2nd half the ...
Swimming, houses, & a fort
Nice lazy morning with nothing going on. I can't believe how well I sleep on a simple 6 inch mattress on the floor. Hilal was very busy today making preparations for the massive engagement ceremony in town today. Forty couples are ...
A Prayer for the House then back to Oman
... 8211; at least for a 5 hour drive with a ton of roundabouts. The drive through UAE was all sand desert. As we got close to Oman the mountains came. The longest part of the trip was the border patrol. At the UAE post they had to check all the cars that ...
Sand Blasted, washed out road & relax
... a 5 gallon water jug in another, and our two backpacks on the other corners to keep the tent down. Maybe not losing so much weight in Oman was a good idea. If it was just Pooja in the tent who knows where it would be now! The wind also brought in a ton of ...
