Back to Al Khozama Garden

The fountains were working and the water running in the channels on this visit, although the pipes still need some attention.

It was quite comical for me to try to take this: I had to stand over the water, but of course had an abaya on, which I didn't want to get soaked as we were going out. So Tim had to come hold it up while I took the picture. I'm sure that was quite a sight for anybody who might have been watching.

Another picture from this park, one of my favorites in the DQ:
