Great picture. Can certainly see why Norman had to stop flying. Good luck with today's leg of the flight.
ReplyDeleteI feel a bit lonely without Spot to guide me on Norman's leg to Abu Dhabi. Good luck Norm.

A great blog post and the photo is fantastic. This is straight out of 'Boy's Own' adventure stories. Amazing :-)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about the Spot comment. Just zoomed in and Norms on a 2 hour+ stint on the ground.

That's a fascinating photo - no wonder the filling station didn't show up on the satellite picture!
ReplyDeleteApparently those circular formations in Saudi Arabia are fields of crops irrigated by "fossil" water pumped from underground rivers, very interesting.
Have a good trip today, Norman.
