Well, things in the region have been a bit of a zoo lately (very mildly put....). The news from Monday was very sad to see. I've been watching the press, and I have not seen anything new today. So, I'm hopeful. Here's a news sample:

The food price issue may be why the LuLu Market appeared to be on fire? In this region, in my opinion, LuLu caters to shoppers with less money in their pockets. Compared with many other places, I have found that LuLu prices can be very good deals. Oman strikes me as such a reasonable place. LuLu? It just doesn't make any sense to me.
My family loves Oman. Mussandam is stunningly beautiful. Muscat is exotic and has one of our favourite restaurants on the planet. The hiking is superb. There are many reasons to love Oman.
And, in the midst of everything....we are moving from our flat to a villa. It is high time. We have so loved our flat but after nearly 4 years in what was supposed to be for only 2 years, it is time. It is my hope and prayer at this point that things stay safe for our family.
Peace.
