Dubai to Oman road Trip

A few years ago I took a trip to Dubai and from there I went to Oman. The drive was beautiful and a little scary considering it was a two lane highway, one side is a mountain with rocks falling and the other side is the ocean. Once we got through the UAE-Oman border there was a little city, Khasab I think.


The ocean was amazing and the area remained untouched, except for the few resorts. There were still houses made out of mud brick and mountain goats roamed the land. There were fisherman pulling in their daily catch and bedouin women cooking a huge pot of food beside their house. At the hotel I was surprised to find Omani men at the counter and helping with the luggage. But in Oman they have Omanisation in which citizens work in every sector of the country. The Omani women worked in the hotel during the days.
