Underground and a beautiful church. We inita...

Takin' A Magic Carpet Ride. You know you're in Saudi when. The Upside to Saudi Life.in Yanbu. So, here's a little list of things that helps me focus on the good parts of living here:. Life here is very simple. By that I mean, when compared to the constant battle for status quo (Keeping up with the Jones') found in most of the world life here is very simple. No one cares what kind of car you drive, how big your house is, if you have the latest monster screen TV.it doesn't matter. We make our own style :).

But, the locals told me that they don't mind.even love.the smell. um, no.).

Sunday Soup - The Family Cooks & The Family Dinner by Laurie David
http://thefamilydinnerbook.com/recipes/2015/06/05/sunday-soup
June 05, 2015. Sunday soup…doesn’t that name make you smile? Try saying it with a frown. Impossible! The other reason it should make you smile is it is the perfect way to use up those vegetables languishing in your fridge, making you feel guilty for not having used them yet. Want to use quinoa or canned beans instead of lentils? No problem. This is your Sunday and your soup, make it, share it and be proud! 3 Italian sausages, (your favorite kind) sliced. 2-3 Tablespoons olive oil. 4 cloves garlic, chopped.

Takin' A Magic Carpet Ride. You know you're in Saudi when. The winding streets, the Grand Canal, San Marco's piazza, the gondola's.yeah, it doesn't get much more romantic than beautiful Venezia.

Well, we loved it. Only three days, but it was just right. We were in a nice location close to San Marco's piazza. The kids and st...

Takin' A Magic Carpet Ride. You know you're in Saudi when. Spring Trippin' Part 1.Amsterdam and Belgium. I was SO excited for this trip. I'd worked really hard planning it and had a hell of a time finding accommodations in Copenhagen and Stockholm. Not just because of pricing, but also limited choices.I almost had to book a hotel! Here I was thinking I'd get to see the fields of tulips! We won't get out.but I mean, we gotta see what its all about! Speaking of bikes.I was totally in awe of the bikes!

Takin' A Magic Carpet Ride. You know you're in Saudi when. Moving to Saudi has to be one of the most nerve wracking events of my life. Not only is it and ENTIRELY different culture, but you don't realize things you'd miss or want until you get here. In an effort to help the families that are heading this way, I thought I would keep an running page of things you may want to consider bringing/shipping with you. My first bit of advice:.
