Corniche, A Rosewood Hotel Jeddah

... out quad bikes and I paid about three dollars to drive one up and down the corniche a few times with my sister-in-law on the back.<br><br>After breakfast we drove along the corniche to look at all the different monuments and the water, and new developments being built -- mostly restaurants and recreational parks. At the end we stopped at the large fish market, which unfortunately does not allow photography. There were some amazing fish for ...

... It was a feeling I have never experienced in my life and don't want to ever experience that feeling again.

See you all soon and my friend in Jeddah those I met and those I didn't get a chance to meet, one day we will meet up again I promise.

Apart from her showing her authority!! But all she has done is shown me how Saudi Royals treat Wester people!! Im just so so glad Im out of it as if this is what she can be like then who knows what would have happened in March!!!!

... had a call from a guy that interviewed me for a job in November they live between Saudi and Jordan wants to speak again to me when I get back to the UK but I just don't know this has been such a terrible and frightening experience I just don't know what to do. Ive taken a few photos today well I had to didn't I just to prove that you can be a westerner out here. OH and Ive got loads of souvenirs on my legs, neck, arms, back etc etc

Well I had a day off yesterday!!! I know someone who was working in Jeddah and I tagged along with her to the beach, it was just so nice to get out and be free!! Oh but I had to be back for 10/10.30pm (I felt like I was a teenager again being told what time I had to be back for, even though it was my day off!!!) But hey ho I was free for the day.i had a great time just doing nothing, we then went for pizza after wards and watched the thunder storm and the rain....yes it rained here lat ...

Sorry I have not done much on my Travel Pod but not really got the heart or mind to do it maybe after a week or so I might!! Need to get a leats a few photos before the end of March. At least I can say it was an experience and it will make me stronger as a person.

... lol) and of course my all time favorite for the flavor of old Yemen, Souk Al Yeman, and Souk al Yumama - for gold... Had some terrific meals, and met with many friends, and can only note that the ongoing urban development, the quality of the new construction and the concerted effort at creating a solid IT infrastructure for all residents of Jeddah is commendable. The new buildings are the dream of great architects, a must see.

well my time here in jeddah is coming to an end. started the count down 17days to go. its been an experience - one I'm not likely to forget. I've enjoyed my time here but life is so different. a bit too different for my tastes. I've tried it and to be honest i didn't enjoy it all that much. I've made some good friends here and will hopefully keep in touch. I'm looking forward to getting home to see my family (the new baby!!!!) and all my friends. it will be ...
