…has got to be the best title of the week if not month. Mabrouk to Tabsir.net. An interesting article too.
Along the same lines, BBC Iplayer has an interesting mini-series focusing on the Frankincense Trail. There is at least an episode and a half in Saudi. One interesting thing was that the female host went around Saudi without anything covering her hair. This, it seems to me, must have been a deliberate choice by Saudi tourism PLC, or whoever. I can only surmise that this is part of Saudi’s (rather lacklustre) tourism push. Nevertheless, Saudi looks beautiful…mumkin fee mustaqbal…
