A road trip back in time
Like I mentioned earlier we are running a little bit behind on the blogging. Here is an attempt to play a little catch up.
2 days ago "Jack Sparrow" took us out on a little roadtrip south of Muscat. The road to our destination was full of dangers such as rockslides, risk of driving off the cliff, and the always present danger; Omani drivers. We drove through little villages with goats and donkeys everywhere. Out there time has stood still for quite some time and as a result the people that live there are very conservative. Its fun to see really. When we got to the destination the last couple of kilometers were all gravel roads, and we are talking low quality gravel roads. They were quite fun to drive on though, I felt like a WRC superstar at times.... Until I got stuck in the sand and a villager had to pull our sorry asses out with his 4 x4, but thats another story.
Our destination was a beautiful beach that seemed to have no end. There we ate some food that we had bought in Muscat at some little cozy local joint. When we got back to Muscat we hung out at our new favorite place, the Oman Diving Center, and had a few beers/laughs with our friends.
Tomorrow is my B day! I hope they wont sacrifice a goat to honor me.
