I have written more than a dozen posts on Dubai, but each time i come across my Dubai pics I have a new story to narrate. Dubai has always been very near to my heart... This post is on our trip to Khasab, Oman from Dubai...
It was somewhere in the holy month of Ramadan few years back, did we and my hubby's friends planned this trip. As the end of Ramadan, Eid-Al-Fitr was linked with weekend, we had almost 4 days off. This trip was a much awaited relaxing trip, as we were about to spend most of the time on beach, away from the fancy and luxurious shopping malls and busy metro life of Dubai.
Khasab is the capital city of Musandam Peninsula, Sultanate of Oman and is almost 185km from Dubai.
As per schedule we left at 5 in the morning. Almost by 6:30 we were at Al Dhara Border Crossing. For me the first thought which comes to mind when I hear of border crossing, is the Waghah Board with gunned men on both sides of the gate... But in gulf, with good relationships with neighboring countries, boarder crossing is as simple as crossing a toll gate in India... You get your passport stamped(from your car itself) at the counter and drive ahead.
