Camping in Oman

 After four days of driving through the rugged Hajar Mountains...
 
 
We found a beautiful camping site in front of some long-abandoned houses.  We were just above a wadi-bed, and out of traffic.  We put candles in the stone wall to add atmosphere at night.
 
 Bob got up early to hike the mountain above our camp.  The first cars came on the unpaved road from the village of Balad Sayt, which we saw later in the day.
 
 
Then he noticed some visitors.  In the green tent, I woke up to the pitter patter of little feet, followed by the yelling of our kids!  It's not the same as camping in the Appalachians, but lots of fun.
