  3. That’s just amazing! I have never seen a sandstorm before but can just imagine how such a storm would be possible in the desert!And to think how I complain about the *little* dust that comes across from all the building going on next door.How are you doing, Fatimah?Love, JCL.

  4. This does not look pleasant.How does one protect the lungs and the computer?

  5. yes DAD, I am agree with you.And I think all of us must to plant trees more to protect our life and other things…Let’s do!MOM, Thank you for sharing with us that photos and the music.:love:Son

  6. Yes, how does one protect the computer? 😆 By the way, I have been in sandstorms like this and I didn’t feel comfortable at all. ;)See youElmar

  7. Great photoes, esp the first one in Oman.I had experienced a sandstorm when going from Basra ( where my ship was in 1980) to Bagdad to see the Hanging Gardens… but that was nothing like the one I see on this photo. Of course the visibility on road was down to a few yards, you could feel the pecking of fine sand particles on your face. Guess thats why Arabs are so wise to choose the white gown, head cover and Nose shield. Each region has its own time-tested attire and it is sad that more and more countries are adopting the “Western” shoe-tie culture that’s simply not suited to their climate. As far as Lungs are concerned, I was told by the Taxi driver that this does not affect the lungs for God-given phelm protection takes care of such fine particle dusts. It is only the CFcs , carbon monooxides that the automobiles are spewing out that leave our lungs in bad shape. Love to allRKK

  8. Hi All,Yes it’s very hard living in these conditions and in Egypt I have been in some which were not like the ones in the photos but to keep your face covered and mouth most of all. Like RKK said Phelm is a protector and there for reasons :)in Egypt the dust from the sand is impossible and I hate dusting people go thru vacuums far faster then in USA or any where else wherethere isn’t alot of sand.Thank you all for viewing these photos did anyone hear the music? :DHi Son nice to hear from you againand Elmar you never told me about your time in the sand :(RKK I love hearing your stories I wish you would BLOG :(Love to all,Fati
