weekend.adventure.

Back at work today, it's a "Monday" for me. I'm feeling a little tired but lots of work to do today! Wow, I had a really amazing weekend. On Wednesday we had a lovely party with friends at their house, and then on Thursday we went camping on the beach for the night. Camping was so much fun and a great way to get out of Muscat and relax for a while. Friday had a ball, she played watch dog all night, growling and barking at the darkness, I am pretty sure nothing was there besides someone going for a midnight piddle. She also went swimming, on her own account - and I was very impressed with little Friday.
Kerry and I decided not to take tents so we slept under the stars, the temperature was perfect, not too many mozzies and a few good winks through the night, although I was woken up at 7am by Friday (who was fully of sand) jumping over my head - a few more grains of sand to add to my sandy bed.
Otherwise, we had great company, great food (Thanks to Dani and Hilal for the catering) and lots of fun in the sun. We went snorkeling, saw some really colourful fish, a jellyfish, a small turtle and also the weirdest looking fish I have ever seen in my life (it had a frill-like fin [means of movement] around the bottom of it, it had 2 big eyes, it was incredibly camouflaged against the coral, it was brown with a scale-like pattern all over its body - all I know is it looked very strange and I would like to know what it is and if it is poisonous or not), unfortunately I didn't have my underwater camera on me at that time so I didn't get a photos of it. Damn.
Anyway, here are some photos from the weekend of underwater life and beautiful Oman.....

Jellyfish
Lots of fun had by all..... ***Note for next time: take a tent so Friday sleeps though the night and doesn't growl at invisible intruders all night, take a stretcher to avoid sleeping in a mini sandpit on my mattress.
