Saudia Airlines building

This was a hastily taken consolation shot (at a shutter speed that I could never even halfway manage on my D800, although I halfway managed here ;-)) because I really was taken with the front of the building, but there were people working that day, and I just didn't know if they would mind or what (so this is the side of the building and not nearly as attractive, although I love that logo). I'll have to go back when it's closed. A little bit about the airlines with some interesting remarks http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudia

For comments on our somewhat comical water situation here (as well as some pretty flowers I came across!), see this image posted earlier today:

Its amazing how much beauty Mother Nature's greenery gives the building with mainly straight lines!
