Wadi is the Arabic term traditionally referring to a valley, but it may also refer to a dry riverbed that contains water only when heavy rain occurs, in North Africa, the term Oued is used instead.

Water is a very precious resource in Oman and on the entire Arabian peninsula. Free flowing water is a rare and a treasured commodity, worthy of special attention. In this set, we visit one of these "Wadis" and enjoy its palm tree fringes and rock-strewn waterbeds.

I recommend viewing in download.

I enjoyed the goats and cat waiting for a handout most.

Thank you Alan for your kind comment, I have to admit, I was very happy with these also, especially the 2 introductory shots. This is an ongoing tour series, if you are interested, I invite you to stay on, the scene will soon change from the water views (as in today's post from the Sur harbor) to the sand/palms/markets/castles and mountain look. - Welcome aboard. If you have plenty of time and the interest, you might also consider going back and looking at the episodes I previously posted over the last 2 weeks or so.

Thank you Khalid for looking in and taking the time to comment, I very much appreciate that. This is still the opening phase of a quite long presentation on Oman and Abu Dhabi/Dubai and there will be much more posts. If you are interested in the area, I invite you to look back at the earlier posts, in case you have not noticed them - they were mainly about the capital city area of Muscat and might be of interest to you.

Many thanks. I am fascinated by the area and will certainly look up your earlier posts. Incidentally, some years ago I was invited to become the economic advisor to the Omani Ministry of Social Affairs. However, at the time I was tied up in several other assignments and could not take up the offer. My loss.

Interesting, I had a similar experience once with a job offer to Liberia in Africa, which I also had to let go as they took too long in their decision making process and I was just about to emigrate to Canada. You have been a long-time UHH member so I assume you know how to quickly access past postings, but just in case, here is the info: click on my name beside my avatar (weberwest), you get my profile, click on the number besides "topics created", and you will see all my posts. Enjoy.
