Arrive at Misty Salalah

Oman Tour - August 2008

Arrived at Salalah border at around 5.00pm. A misty Salaha welcomed us. It was like raining. Thick fog enveloped causing low visibility. The mountain roads with ultra low visibility! No wonder, it took about 2 hours for next 90 km.

On the Way from Nizwa to Salalah

Oman Tour - August 2008

800 km from Nizwa to Salalah - You see only desert! About 200 km interval, there are fule stations, restaurants and groceries. A few motels also found. Started at 6.00 am from Nizwa and reached Salalah at 7.15 pm with 890km running! A monotonous driving. Taking rest at motel and spending about 45 minutes relaxing at each stations, it was not that tiresome.

A mobile toilet found en route to Salalah
