A few photos

While we were out on our walk, I took a few other photos.


Here's another view of the villa compound where we live.


The wall you see surrounds a sheik's villa and compound. In the background, you see four white spires. Those are the spires of the Grand Mosque.  It's several miles away, just to give perspective. I want to go check that out very soon; it's striking from the outside, and supposed to be incredible on the inside.


This shot shows the sheik's villa (nope, don't know which sheik ... there are HUGE villas and compounds not far from here as well) ... Eric's bike is on the left, and you can see (if you squint, or if you can enlarge this photo), a couple of people just past the bike; well, the top of their heads. They are down next to the water, fishing for Hammour (a speciality around here and quite tasty).


And this is just an elongated shadow of me.
Artsy? Goofy?
At this point it's bed time and I'm punchy, so including it for kicks :-)
