How easy to forget that 'tis the season to be jolly. 5 days till Christmas and I haven't even begun my shopping yet.
To celebrate Christmas Sonia and I are taking a road trip to Marib and Sayoun. Foreigners arn't allowed in Marib, so we are going to have to wear a niqab (the cloth that covers the face). Fortunately for me, I have dark eyes so when wearing a scarf and niqab I can pass for a Yemeni providing that I don't talk, walk, stand up or move. In Marib they have the famous Marib dam as well as a bunch of camels that I am going to ride. We leave in T+11 (everything runs late here in Yemen.
But since I will be on the road, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
Right back at you
