DAY 135 - RAS AL HAAD TO MUSCAT



Waving Goodbye to The Turtle Resort in Ras Al Haad

We found out this morning that our Saudi Visas had been rejected and that we had to return to Muscat to appear at the embassy and appeal the decision. We were hugely disappointed as we had intended on visiting the Omani Desert and the vast empty quarter to do some dune driving. So after a quick snorkle and lunch at the Turtle Resort, we hit the road.


Lovely views on the road from Sur back to Muscat

This drive back has some beautiful ocean scenery which was some consolation after the bad news. Arriving back late in Muscat, we met the visa agent again to get our passports and documents back and arrange our plan of attack at the Saudis.
