Road Trip to Oman

The country of Oman borders the UAE and you can get to it's historic and temperate coast in about 5 hours by car. So when I got news from the Sheik in my email that the end of Ramadan this year will be celebrated with a whole week off, we decided to take our first road trip. En route, there is supposedly some unique mountain and desert scenery. We're leaving tomorrow and will be staying at the Shangri-La resort a few miles outside of Muscat, on the Omani coast. It's an historic coastal village with a renowned bazaar and old-time fishing boats. I'm not sure whether we'll be online much since the goal is to get away and relax - so watch for our next news in about a week.
