Salalah,Oman

Salalah, Oman experiences a wide range in weather, ranging from snow in the mountains to 130 + highs in the desert. This took quite a toll on my fur. This is the "perfume capital of the country" and is a very clean city. Large quantities of frankincense are exported. The ruling Sultan has implemented programs that have endeared the national population to him - namely education, medical care, land distribution and housing. The monsoon season (June to Sept) draws visitors from the region to enjoy the rain and cooler temperatures.
