Emirates/Oman 2005
Emirates/Oman - March 16 - April 04, 2005
My first real holiday (>1 week) since my trip to Japan 2 years ago! Three great weeks in Middle East: Emirates
and Oman. Many thanks to Sébastien who hosted me at Abu Dhabi, and also to Tonja, Michael, Elvira, Chantal for the good hints.
If you have any question or remarks, feel free to add your comments under the pictures or to send me a mail under om@omnis.ch.
I hope you will enjoy the trip! :-)
