On the road

Strangely empty roads on a Friday night in Al Khobar. We were en route to Jubail after a visit to IKEA a couple of weeks back.

Sunset

Sunset over the vast Arabian desert  while returning from a day trip to Nariyah last February. The small black shapes in the distance are camels.

Sandstorm

A camel farm during a sandstorm en route to a pre-planned outing to the desert camp today. With sandstorms in full swing, it was a wrong day to venture out. The sky had turned yellow and visibility was down to a few meters.
