Photo 1: This boy decided he would marry us. Diana is wife #1 because she is "the most beautiful", I'm wife #2 because I have "beautiful eyes". In Islam a man can marry 4 wives. I dare say that would be a bad idea. but he was charming, so we humored him with a photo.

Photo 2: Not a mirage! We were in an oasis in the dry dry desert! and it was absolutely fabulous and refreshing.
