What a wet one this proved to be! There is often rain in the afternoons in July and August and there was no shortage of water in the Al Jazira wadi. No shortage of fish and toads either, though we only saw one snake. The wadi has cut narrowly and steeply through the rocks. The sides are steep and narrow and it would be easy for a person unfamiliar with the area to miss the wadi from downstream. Some of the cliff faces rarely see direct sunlight and we spy a rare growth in the Middle East - moss, with a sprinkling of orchids mixed in.

Wow, that looks fantastic! Must visit when I'm back, thanks for sharing the pics.
Hi Steve, I've just been reading your blog with great interest and getting up to date with your Oz trip - sounds as though it's got off to a great start with wine and footie although I'd have to pass on the footie myself.......can't help thinking about how much Dad would have enjoyed reading it all.Enjoy, love Sarah
