Bangladesh

Bert recently travelled to Dhaka Bangladesh to recruit new workers for his company. Most of his photos were taken from inside a car as he worked the whole time he was there, but they still are so interesting

More window cleaning

Bert snapped this window cleaner on a recent trip to Dhaka Bangladesh. This guy despite his ladder made of bamboo and rope, has a safety harness of sorts on.

safety first

This is a reasonably common sight here. This guy is on the top floor apartment across the courtyard.
I walked into our dining room one day to find our maid balanced on the ledge outside the window. I resisted the urge to grab the camera, I was more concerned about coaxing her back inside safely

Qasar Al Sarab resort

Bert and I recently spent four lovely days at Qasar al Sarab resort in the Empty Quarter in the Liwa Desert. The resort itself is built like an Arabian villiage. It was just all very spectacular and restful.

Ibn Battuta Mall Persia court

Ibn Battuta is the closes mall to us and its spectacular. Ibn Battuta was one of the greatest travelers the world has ever seen and hardly ever heard of. Making Marco Polo seem like a casual backpacker, Ibn Battuta was on the road for almost 30 years, covering some 75,000 miles through the length and breadth of the Muslim world. The mall is divided up into courts to represent the countries he explored. These photos are from the Persia court.
