Story:
Between my talk this morning and two talks later today I took off to explore Muscot, the main city in Oman. It is a little over 100 miles from Iran across the Gulf of Oman. There are fewer than 3 million in Oman and most live along the coast, most in Muscat. Forty years ago Oman was mostly desert with Arabs with flocks and riding camels. Oil has caused it to sprout into a modern country. The people are moderate Muslims and very friendly. It was hot today but not like summer when temperatures average over 100 degrees. Today was a holiday so little traffic and many out picnicking.

Tips:
Carry lots of water or plan to buy it along the way.
