...reflecting and processing...

So I've been back for more than a week now and I still find it hard to explain everything I saw....experienced....feel. I do a lot better with questions so if you have any-or you see me around, please ask. Reentry is a weird feeling and unfortunately I already find myself closing up.


This huge plastic statue of an oryx (Oman's endangered national animal) sits on the side of a busy highway. We got out of our car to take a picture with it.


A snapshot of Saudi Arabia from the airplane. I STILL can't believe I got to stop there!




Kantab beach, Muscat skyline, and Ayub's family plantation with "kissing" palm trees.

















A view through a window in a fort, dinner with friends, pictures at Starbucks, and a big "swimming hole" filled with fresh and salt water.






Pictures with Kalsa and her cousins at Yemani food, pictures with Muneera and Hanan. Jasmine liked Hanan's glasses so much, she bought a pair!
