A Dhow in the Making

We call it the dhow graveyard but actually they don't only go their to retire, they're also birthed there. This is a new dhow, almost complete, ready to sail the waters soon. In the Middle East petrol is so cheap that they all have motors, whereas further down in Africa they use sails on the dhows, but a sturdy boat it must be because they've carried on for centuries.

Hope you all had a good weekend, we have, our boxes for shipping were packed today and have gone and now, being our first wedding anniversary, we are going to sip some nice cold South African wine.
