We are coming up on one year in Saudi.... or the anniversary of when Tim arrived to Jeddah. We have another year to go and we are making it. :)
Patty and Josh came to visit. They arrived on the 4th of January and then left in early on the 12th. We spent our time with them walking along the Red Sea on the Corniche, shopping at the Mall of Arabia and the Red Sea Mall, touring the old city center (Al Balad) and dining Moroccan in the family eating section on the top of a 5 story mall there, site seeing up to KAUST, walking up a near by street that is lined with store fronts, shopping and eating at Shatea Souk, driving up and feeding baboons on the encampment road past Mecca while enroute to Taif, snorkeling in the Red Sea at Marjan Beach, dining with friends here on compound and just enjoying our time together..... in general... miss them already!!!! Oh and who knew a game of UNO could last over 2 hours..... something must be wrong with that deck.... :) I love them both and am so proud of the couple they have become.
