Thank you Mahfaif, over at Tahyati Blog for these photos. And our dear friend The Dragon is back with a post on detained blogger Muawiyah Al Rawahi. Check it out here. (PS - I'm mourning Whitney)
Makes me smile from ear to ear seeing my brothers in faith carrying on with their dances despite the hardship they face because of their roots. Ashoo Ashoo Yalla Ashoo !!
Nadia salaams, interesting post on this festival, which I have never heard of before. Just added some photos to my blog of my memories of Dhofar - added your blog link - as the expert on the region! Kat http://khaleejikat.blogspot.com/2012/02/dhofar-memories.html
Dhofar is the Southern province in the Sultanate of Oman. Salalah is the capital city of Dhofar (in fact, the only city). Salalah is unique in many ways. After a week or so of posts, you'll begin to know why. As a Salalahtarian, I have insider's input. If you follow my blog, you'll begin to appreciate (if not already) the richness of our amazing little town. Salalah is very special, and very different.If you're wondering why I'm fluent in English, it's because I spent several years studying abroad. However, I am a Salalah girl through and through. . I have a lot of positive (and rather amusing) things to write about. I do not aim to criticize the society in Salalah or the way of life. I am proud of who we are and how we live. I only intend to tell it as it is.
