On our way to Oman

One day R. and I drove across the skinny peninsula and went to the upper part of Oman.


Oman is mostly South and East of Dubai but there is a little part of it isolated at the tip of the Arabia "boot" (Yes I know, "the Boot" is usually Italy, but you have to admit that the Arabian peninsula also looks like a boot). on the satellite photo (from Google maps) the part North of the white line is the small isolated part of Oman.
We went across the border at the seaside in a little town called Dibba. It is a beautiful place. The Omani side is not as developed as the UAE side and as a result much nicer.

This is the road to Oman with some views on our way.
