Yes, we did the full day dhow trip and kayaking, lots of colourful fish, loads of dolphins and secluded warm waters to swim in. Not sure when you were last there but they are in the process of building a cafe/restaurant/resort on Telegraph Island. The building footprint appears to take up most of the island. Oman is developing rapidly to catch the tourists, albeit, still relatively quiet. We also rented a 4x4 and drove over the mountains (Jebel Harim) to the small and isolated coastal village of Lima.

I have attached a few photos of
Musandam. We loved it as we are Oman generally.View attachment 1161980View attachment 1161993View attachment 1161994View attachment 1161995View attachment 1161997View attachment 1161998View attachment 1162006View attachment 1162008View attachment 1162010View attachment 1162007

Memories, spent so much time there over the years. Must be about 5/6 years ago last time we were there.
Spent so much time 4x4ing in the wadis and deserts there.
Don't know if you will get as far down as Salalah in the Dofar region another interesting place.
 
Had to post this. Sitting at a NZMCA site at Franz Josef. It’s 23 degrees at 17:06 and I can see the Tasman glacier while having a beer and watching the tourists helicopters coming back from their trips.

Ok, the site doesn’t have electricity but it has everything else, 10 minutes walk from the centre of Franz Josef and it is costing me $10 a night, that £4.33!

Beat that CMC or CCC.

Absolutely chucking it down here at La Jonquera, Spain, blowing a hooley too! 😱

We had flood alert notifications this morning on the phones for Girona as it's not far away. Good job I was already awake as I'd have thought we were being attacked. 😄

We're heading northwards shortly and driving in this weather isn't going to be a pleasant thing to do as there are 60 mph gusts so it's gonna get rocky! 😱

Yesterday was the best so far, spent from 11am to 5.15pm on the above beach in shorts and tee shirt. Supposed to be similar today BUT from tomorrow (when we fly home) it’s forecast to turn overcast and drizzley for the forthcoming 4 days at least.

That’s good timing for us 👍

That is what you get for trying to creep off & avoid the 'rain ' here.

Nice day yesterday apart from the wind & today even better.

We had a few light showers last night and this morning in Simat near Gandia no wind at all dead calm. We've moved inland a bit to Bellús, no wind or rain and the sun keeps popping out now and then 😄 I think the Harry must be stalking Minxy.
 
Less dramatic than forecast in Denia too. Light showers and some wind. Still cold and windy here today.

Our last day today (7th) before flying home tomorrow. Great to make it another beach day 👍
From tomorrow for five days it’s forecast overcast and regular drizzle, great timing!

Lots of issues down in Southern Spain with major warnings in quite a few places, France also.
 
Just got back to Manchester and guess what....................yes it's pissing dow, but not as cold as i was expecting.
We arrive back in Manchester early Thursday morning. Can’t say I’m looking forward to it after 10 days of Jamaican sunshine 🥶
Still, it’s only 6 weeks until we head off to Spain for 89 days 😏

Sun just coming over hill here in Jamaica, due to be 29 degrees, which to honest is a little hot for me. Don't understand how people can just lie in it all day?
Where are you? We’re at the Riu Palace Aquarelle at Trelawney.
It’s too hot around the pools, so we base ourselves on the beach which tends to have a cooling breeze 😎
 
On the Med coast near Beziers, France.

Just had one of the worst spells of rain ever. Flooding everywhere. Moving today to an aire in Marseillan Plage, our current one under several centimetres of water.

Hard standing and waste disposal but no leccy...

€8 a night

Sorry your visit to our part of the world has not been good, we are about a hour or so inland from you and we had some snow yesterday, if you can believe the forcast, you may get some more heavy rain this afternoon, but hopefully it will calm down a bit over the next few days although getting a little colder.

We live here so we're fairly used to the climate. Having said that, Spain is our usual winter hideaway..!

It was brighter this afternoon, so had a beach walk.

Great aire and thinking of staying here a bit longer. We have the car and e-Bikes so it's very relaxing.
