Contact Has Been Made



As promised, I got in touch with my friend in Muscat, and this is what he has to say.....

oh it was pretty coooool here(except fer the damages)..hehee.. well lets say i
got to enjoy the rain and breeze while walkin on the road (b'fore the real
cyclone showed up!) .. got all drenched and all .. hehehe..it was nasty in
masirah islands (part of oman).. and sameer's side.. went out to see the damages
caused today .. saw cars flown away to the wadis and malls filled with water..
anyways this was the first time a cyclon came here.. enjoyed it!! there was
electricity here .. nothin much happened to my side .. except a tree gettin
uprooted and fallin on the road .. and the entrance of my building being flooded
.. we started clearin all the water ..and also got an australian girl who stays
above my floor to help us out! hehe!! ya right now oman is in a bit of sorry
state ..with all trees uprooted .. walls near the port destroyed a bit ..
flights may operate from today ,pavements partially destroyed.

But there have been reports of some 12 casualties....hopefully it doesn't rise any higher.
