Great Camping trip!

Our last day of the trip started with Ben and I waking up early and watching the sun rise over the mountains. We woke up early because Ben had a cold while we were on vacation and as soon as he woke up he started coughing. But the sunrise was beautiful....


You can see our camp site down there.

So we headed to Wadi Damm because it was a great middle point for us. Paul, Ben, Lisa, and I were here in the spring but we had so much fun we thought we would show Brad and Heather. When we were there in the Spring there weren't that many people but since it was a Holiday there were many people there. Many who bring huge picnic lunches. Well we walked around for a while, the boys pushed a big rock down a hill, and swam while Heather and I just shook our heads at them. When we were coming back in to set up our camp Brad said to a large group of Sri Lankens that their food looked good. Before we knew it we each had a big plate of traditional Sri Lanken food. It was sooo good, much better then the hot dogs that had been in our cooler since the beginning of the trip. They were so kind and we really appreciated their hospitality. Another reason we love Oman.

That night we had another great fire and relaxed and talked. We did play 2 games of cribbage that ended up in a tie. But we were all tired so we went to bed. The next day we packed up and got back to Abu Dhabi around 3 pm. Time to unpack and relax.

This was another great trip and we are so lucky that we are getting these experiences. Sometimes I get caught up in everything and forget how lucky I am to have great family and friends. There are so many people who don't have the support I do at home and I am so grateful for all of you. Thank you...
