Salalah, Oman


After visiting the mosque and ship yard, we spent an hour in the local market (gotta love those markets!) We then headed for the airport again to fly to Salalah. We're finally in the region most likely to be "The land which we called Bountiful". It's gorgeous. It's lush and green with palm trees everywhere. You can see why Nephi referred to this as a land of "milk and honey". We'll be exploring this area for the next 5 days. Stay tuned....!

I hope you get to see the wadi near the Yemen border; I know that some say its there that the voyage was started from there; others say from Khor Rori. It will be very interesting to read more
