At Willie's house we are packing all things necessary for a New Year Desert adventure including Wine and the Kitchen Sink.
As loyal supporters of PDO (Petroleum Development Oman) we are able to manage a smile at the local Shell Petrol station.

Simon an experienced off roader on his way to secret Turtle beach.
Glenn and Agata descending confidently. It's really steeper than it looks, I can't even run down it quickly.
Two of our beautiful beach babes
Marcus is off for a sandy beach then mountainous run. Raidlight Gaters I thank you
On my return Agata tells me she's ready to run. So off again.
Rocks are light, sharp and I think Volcanic. Excellent traction for running!
Kids reported Turtles were spotted. I only saw crabs :-(
The "others" are spotted on our beach! A group of Italian tourists have landed.
Glenn and Annemarie have opted for the au natural sleeping under the stars routine.
Marcus and Agata opted to bring their ultra light Lunar Duo tent from Switzerland
The New Year of 2012 has arrived
Gentlemen retire to the smoking room
Annemarie graciously welcomes in the year of 2012
