Yemen - Sana'a Revisited

Hello,

As some of you know I am in Yemen again. I've been here for about two months now, but I haven't taken too many pictures. I've been quite busy catching up on sleep, and enjoying (almost to the point of insanity) all the peace and quiet, oh yes, and doing a little research too. I don't have much time, so I will just dump a few pictures of this and that (in a confusing order).. enjoy!


Ahh here's a picture during my first power cut :)

Deep in thought

The qamaria in my room.. when I wake up and look at it, half a awake.. it looks like its constantly changing colour.

And here I am, in my morning/afternoon ritual of starring out the window

This is the view from my window, so it's usually quite nice, and sometimes I get to see sheep and rosters..

Ok enough of me for now.. here are some pics of Old Sana'a. Some of them are from a short walk of through a random neighbourhood in Old Sana'a. Other pics are from the roof of the school where I took lessons to improve my arabic.

Hey Mustafa,

This was around March/April 2006. I visited you guys at this time and I think I stayed over at your place for a few days. Fun times!
