Salalah Oman

Some precautions


Wonder who this (attired for tomb visit)?

Arriving at lunchtime (complete with razor wire, part of the anti-piracy measures which includes high pressure water, armed guards and safe haven drills ) we went to see the Frankincense museum. These are crystals obtained from tree sap and is quite cheap here!

We also saw the old port of Sumharam dating back to 2000 BC, with a small lagoon.

We then went to Bin Ali's tomb, with Helen suitably attired.
