A Trip to the Souq


Today  I somehow (not sure how) but managed to talk Nick into taking me to the souqs.
I remember spending alot of time in the souqs in Saudi and loved it - lots of bargains to be found and local nik naks.  (Nick loathes this sort of thing)


The architecture is real traditional middle eastern - it is lovely.


Unfortunately not many of the shops were open which means we have to go back - but I will have to give Nick some happy pills before we go!!!!


There are quite a few restaurants here also - apparently it is a nice place to be at night time - lots of entertainment.

Although we could not shop we did get to see them making a TV commercial


The film crew


Hubbly Bubbly (shisha) if you wish to partake.
There was an article in the paper the other day saying that it has been proven that Shisha is worse than tobacco!!
