Oman, or Middle East: the Movie (Day 19)

So we get up. Honestly, one good look at the beach, in the morning light, tells me this is where the Mid East meets the Caribbean. This is the Hollywood version of the Middle East. Rugged hills, sleepy town, etc, etc...


His highness

The school we go to is impressive. These kids are young, but know what they are looking for (even at 7th!). These are the ones that impress you and keep you on your toes at the same time. I feel good about it even though it is not swamped.


The ruggedness

We go back to the hotel. I actually go for a run on the beach. So proud. It has been so long.


The starkness

The fair is better that anyone imagined. Joseph went all out with the ads in local newspapers. I’d say it was 50%, 50%, Indian and Omani attendees. Afterwards we all go to eat at the hotel grill.


The playfulness


The inlaid mapness
