KASAB, OMAN



Kasab, Oman



People had told us the mountains and water were so beautiful in Mussandom Oman. We agree but have to admit, it looks a lot like Utah. A cross between Bear Lake and Lake Powell. The difference was the salt water and the dolphins and other sea life we were able to see.

This is like the dhow we took for a half day cruise to see the dolphins. Grandma and Grandpa Cook are here visiting until Feb. 15th. We are having so much fun including them in our everyday lives. Taking the trip to Oman was something we have been waiting to do. They were the perfect reason to go. The 5 hour car ride went smoothly and was a lot more fun with Grandma and Grandpa in the cars with us.

Weekend in Oman



Charlie loved watching for dolphins over the edge of the dhow.
None of us were disappointed. Several dolphins swam by our boat and jumped up out of the water next to us. Off in the distance there were many jumping up and playing all around us.


Even on a road trip, Charlie had to take his creatures. He now has a container specifically for snakes, one for sharks and a third one for all other creatures.

Trip to Oman





Our hotel pool was great fun. Even with the pool back home we still loved swimming in the big hotel pool.
