Follow the leader

The red sand dunes south of Riyadh are definitely a popular place, although there weren’t a huge number of people when we were there. When we were leaving, however, the Saudis were starting to pour into the area.

I would love to jump on a four wheeler and go to the top! Nice shot, Helen!

Always so interesting to see how things have changed (though not always for the better) in another part of the world.

The ATV's seem out of place; we're all accustomed to seeing camels! But I guess the Saudi's are stepping into the 21st century along with the rest of the world. V
