1.Its been three wet and rainy days here in Muscat, and from what it looks like, this is likely to continue for a few more.
Day 1 was fun, because of the novelty, Day 2 was tolerable and yesterday felt a bit of a drag...
The other more worrisome aspect is the very real fact of the 'wadis' rising upto a point when they then become flash floods and wash away everything that comes in their way, including cars, buses, debris and a whole lot more.
I'm aware that there have been a number of deaths in these three days, some of which were distinctly preventable. If only people had listened to the warning sent out by the Authotries asking them not to venture anywhere near them.
But what seems actually ridiculous is when people actually come to gape at the swollen wadi, as if its some kind of a tourist spot and then stand as close as possible, clicking photographs.
When will they ever learn??
2. Coffee- Where there is a will, there really has to be a way.
I have got over the coffeee withdrawal symptoms and actually managed two weeks w/o my favourite beverage.
One of life's lessons learnt..there is nothing that one can't do without.
If there really is that great desire to accomplish it.
