City in the desert (1)

This was taken on the outskirts of Riyadh city as we drove past. It might just be a rental concession for ATVs (which they appear to be in the distance), although they don’t seem to have any vehicles. I did like the two chairs sitting out in the sun, though. The animals barely visible look to be horses rather than camels, which was surprising.

It seems like a rough life, but peaceful as well. V

Stark and oh, so hot! How could they bear to sit on those chairs without any shade!
