Old Sanaa Wadi Ma6ar and a Walk in the clouds

Salam!

Hope all are ok! I moved to the compound, all is well thank god. I didn't take photos of my new home yet, so I'll send them later in another email. I swim almost everyday in the OUTDOOR pool! It's December and the weather is spring like here!

Work is ok and all is well 7amdellah. I went to interesting places this weekend. First to old Sana'a and Bab Al-Yemen Market! This place is soooo old! We went to the site of Abraha Al-7abashi Kullais (or Ka3bah) which he made to attract religious tourism after he saw the thriving economy of Makkah! Full story including TAFSEER SORAT ALFEEL can be found on this link:

We also saw the old mosque (al jame3 al kabeer) which the Prophet himself (PBUH) ordered to build.

Next day we went to Bani Ma6ar dam and from there to a village between the clouds! Yes really!It was so high that we were driving between the clouds! I leave you with the pictures.

Take care and stay in touch.
