The Yemen Chronicles Part 8 - Hadhramawt Contd.

Hello again,

Here are more pictures of my day trip to Hadhramawt..



this is somewhere in the countryside.. There are those women in pointy hats. I noticed the women here were taller and bigger then the women in northern Yemen. I also drove by a few places where they were making mud bricks.. Unfortunately, my camera couldnt turn itself on in time to catch pics of that.



I think this mountain would give good shade when playing football.



a mountain of mufflers..


with very low rates..



I think this was in Seyoon.. that big white building used to be a palace. Now its a museum..



Ahmed on the left, and our driver on the right.. I forget his name.. Ibn something.. i think.. I can't quite remember anything tonight. This is at the top of the museum.. It was 'closed' but we sort of let ourselves in..



Ahmed thought this was really funny and insisted I take a picture..





Some kids returning from schooool..



Here's a palace that's falling apart.. I can't remember where.



A mosque.. somewhere :)



I think these pictures are in Tarim.. Tarim used to be a centre of knowledge in ancient times.



another mosque





Another old palace.. It's really sad that many of the old buildings are falling apart.. with each one a little bit of history and heritage also falls apart.



nice pink shoes
