Little mosque in the early morning sun

This morning I got up a little earlier and took Dino for a walk to the other side of a big road to take pictures of this mosque. Fortunately there was hardly any traffic so crossing was easy.
According to my phone, sunrise was at 6.14am, but I had to wait a little because the mountain blocked the sun. I like the little restaurant next to it too.

Now I'm up to date again. During lunch with a friend last Monday I mentioned how sad I was that I could not get Nadya here in December and that we are now thinking to travel to Texas.
My friend gave me a contact in the embassy and although they cannot give any guarantee they are giving going to get permission/a visa for her. I needed to send an email with a good reason which they can present to the Omani Government and scans of all our important documents. So that took some time, but we have a little hope now!

Very nice shot

It doesn’t seem so small really. It appears to be spread out.

Beautiful shot and great natural lighting. The buildings look so neat and impeccably kept. Fingers crossed Nadya will make it after all.

that's a rather attractive minaret for a small mosque.

if it was 1986, i could've helped you as i knew quite a few people then at the foreign affairs ministry. also our patron the then minister of petroleum was easy to speak to; i once asked for help and with a lift of a phone, a few words and my rather difficult compassion request (for the mother of my assistant) was granted. i hope your daughter is able to get her visa; it'll save you lots of grief in this rather difficult time.

Thank you Vicky. Unfortunately it is not 1986 and we are dealing with a tricky pandemic... But we keep fingers crossed that Nadya can come here...
