After the Bombay Ducks and the Slumdogs, after a while that you were gone and all of us acquaintances and fans had no idea whether you were going back to Oman or not, after reading the last Oman2Day you were editor of, after all that... came Wadi Lawami. No idea why, I got out my maps of Oman and looked and looked. I talked to a friend who works in the military, those soldiers known for the great geography they can master. I talked to the eldest person in Oman that I know. To an amateur photographer there. To a friend who claims he has done all wadis of the Gulf countries in his 4X4. Nobody knew of Wadi Lawami. Figures. Pinaki is there, so nobody else has been there before. Congrats on keeping us on the edge, while all you do is going to yet another expedition with truck, camera and notebook. Congrats on the story and congrats on the photo. Once again, I realize your adventure was worth all that time investigating where your whereabouts were. Welcome back. OK.
