Finally visited your blog! Fascinating and wonderful. I am so pleased you are having a good trip. Take care and keep it coming. Beautiful photos! What marvelous patterns, in everything, from pumpkins to bread stamps. Canals very unexpected. Looks like you are seeing soooo much. Thank you for taking all the time to share the pics with us housebound slugs---watching 15 straight hours of Breaking Bad to catch up! No time for a life

What a surprise. I had expected camel trading lots, dusty open bazzars, loaded camel trains disappearing over barren hills. It looks very peaceful and pleasant.
