It's Harvesting Time for these 2 Monkeys

2 Monyet Besar :)

These 2 guys (Kris and Gayo) could not fight the urge not to climb the date tree. Since this is near the end of winter in Bahrain and so is date fruit season. We have to catch them before the birds finish them all or before it is getting too dry. Alamak... the taste is unbelievable, so sweet and tender when chewing and hmmmph I am fasting now, I can not tell you further Hahahahah perhaps next time!
Do you like Date fruit or Tamar (Arabic) or Qhorma (Persian)?
I do, I do, I do..... I break my fast with it. Love it!!!!!!!

Old Bahraini Architecture

Bahrain Exhibition Center

Bahraini Tower

A Bahraini House Compound

I passed this house compound days ago when my friends and I went to see Bahrain Exhibition Center a coule days ago . The house look kind of lonely and unfriendly.

Most house in Bahrain is a copy carbon of this one.

One of these days, I will write a detail information

about traditional Bahraini house and

If I am lucky, I will get the pictures as well.

Wish me luck y'all!

The Beautiful Kanoo Mosque

This is my friend, Amru. He is a Palestinian. We met last night after the pray. It is good to see the familiar face. We promise to see each other again tonight at the same mosque. Insyallah!

Pearl Of Bahrain

I am feeling so gloomy today. I am having a flu ( or cold for most people say it)! Since the last 3 days, I start having all my joint painfull, Cold sweat and finally I got me nose blocked ! I am having a bad cold!! So to cheer up myself and everybody who happen to cross my page, here is a shot of the famous Bahraini Pearl during my exploring trip. Later on, I will digg deeper for a story of Bahraini Pearl.

Have you ever gone Pearl Diving, my mate from South Africa keep asking me to join him for a peral Diving. Geez, I have not been diving for 5 years. I still can not say yes to him. I am afraid of deep water now. LOL

Pool for the Birds

Quite Road at Sanabis

This is one quite road at Sanabis. When I showed it to a Lebanese friend who has lived in Bahrain for years, he said nobody is going to believe that it is in Sanabis. I am wondering how long this road is going to stay there. Will it survive the so called modernization and stay there or give way to those new tall buildings? Well it gives me a sad thought that this place will be vanished in the future.

Fish Market

The fishes available in market. All in the floor, it reminds of home. it is exactly the same way

Parking Lot

In here in Bahrain, People is very serious when building a space for parking area. What mostly intrique me, most parking lot here is built with a metal construction bone and a tent like shade for the sun. It is normally found in offices, malls, houses and hotels. the one I am posting now, taken yesterday when I was a bit bored and its rather late afternoon. I took a walk a bit at the resort entrance, turned left to the front parking lot and when I looked up and saw the these slots. I was feeling in awe and rushed back to office to grab my digital camera. I hope i could catch it in time to get the right picture.

Anyway, it looked so nice, the near sunset light and the green grass (that's a pretty sight for us here lol because during the summer, every plant look dull, brownish in colours and seem half dead). Since there is no car parking there, it feel so quite and peaceful.

Do you guys have a special feature on a parking lot in your town?

A Garden in a Desert

These two plants look really nice when captured in a camera. Actually the one in the bottom is one of the common shrub growing all around my flat area and the other one is a common tall grass mostly found in the field.

Wild shrub is one of the common plants which survive the harsh condition in the desert. It is really amazing of how they could survive the extreme weather here during the summer. But do not worry! These two greens are grown in a garden and they are well watered everyday.

That also answers the reason why their colouring are really nice and pleasing to the eyes.

Later, I will post more of garden pictures. Have a nice day all!
