Spent the morning along the corniche in Muscat checking out the fish market, walking along the harbour front and revisiting the souk for another look. The fish market was wonderful - full of local fisherman selling their mornings bounty from the sea. Saw some fish we recognized and some we did not. Also made a second trip to the souk - there are so many alley ways, stalls, wares to look at it was almost overwhelming the first time so we had a second look today and still found it overwhelming! You can buy every textile imagineable, old and new silver jewelry, incense burners, clothing, spices, carvings, gold, khunjar, purses, baskets, and on and on....
Our afternoon was spent pool and beach side relaxing and snoozing. Our nephews were in a sailing competition today and did quite well. The girls enjoyed a good swim and some hiking along the bluffs around the bay. They have been finding some marvelous sea shells here. More R and R is on the agenda for the next few days as we prepare for the arrival of Santa in Muscat.
