Parksy's middle east visit

[Parksy]

Hi all

These aren't really 4x4 related photos but i thought that someone might enjoy them. Taken last year in several different countries in the middle east, unfortunately my computer is being crap and i seem to be missing lots of photos but once i get to the bottom of it i'll try and upload them.

Video isn't that impressive but i just wanted to capture one of the many prayers that got sung many times throughout the day.

Awesome photos mate. It's hard to believe that a lot of those countries over there are so beautiful, yet all over the headlines for the wrong reasons.

Too true, and they are very friendly people. I felt more comfortable wondering the streets at night over there than i do here in Australia.

Thanks for the pics as it brings back some great memories. I've got some great pics of Petra also.

I thought Jordan was absolutely awesome.

Heard that a few times. Workmate recently went to Turkey and albeit shi**ing him self initially, after he returned he said they were by far the friendliest most inviting people he's ever met and would go back there any day.

Absolutely. But there are a few Middle Eastern countries off limits. We visited Djibouti several times and that was a big eye opener. I have photos somewhere, very depressing place. Dead animals in the water, aids was prevalent, bullet holes in lots of buildings and the people would just stare at us.
