Mr.B picked me up at 8AM. Desert driving is also fantastic. I took videos this time. | |
Oman is very rocky. I haven't known that until my visit. It must have been tough to pave these roads. Mr.B said "Thanks to His Majesty Sultanate of Oman Qaboos". I have to ask Google for Japan Emperor's name. Mr.B repeated a lot. I will never forget "His Majesty Sultanate of Oman Qaboos." Mr.B said "Education and hospital is free. If you are a government official, even though after you die, your family can get money." | |
11:00 AM. We got to Muttrah. "I hope you will be a government official." We said goodbye each other. After I put my backpacks at Naseem Hotel, I headed to an office of National Ferries Company to get a ticket from Muttrah to Khasab. I'd like to go to a exclave of Oman, Musandam, by ship. According to an official site, they leave on every Monday and Thursday. I scheduled everything for this. Me: "Can I get a tomorrow ticket?" Staff: "No ship tomorrow." Me: "What!? No, no, no. I have a reservation by email. Here's my booking number. Your staff sent me." Staff: "No Service. We are in Ramadan." Me: "Reeeeeally!? How can I go to Khasab?" Staff: "Oman Air. Take a taxi to Ruwi." I got a flight ticket. Me: "It's a bummer not to get on a ship. But, I'm still lucky. If I go to an office tomorrow, I can't go to Khasab." At this time, there was no way to know another 2 trouble would wait for me. |
