Oman

Photo taken in Musandam, Oman.

Our work social club had organised a day trip from Dubai to Oman, including a trip through the fjords on a traditional dhow boat complete with lunch cooked by the boat captain.



I have yet to post all the photos from that trip, but this picture was taken by Krysta during aour brief stop at Telegraph Island, a former British outpost and site of one of the first cross-ocean telegraph cables...

The water was colder than it looks and aside from the (imagined) sharks and other creepies in the water, it also contained miniscule jellyfish which turned us itchy for a little while afterward.

All in all it was a fun day!

I'm in Auckland, about to head back to the hotel to get ready for the flight back to Sydney. More to come...
