Jeszcze trochę trudno w to uwierzyć, nie jest to? Roku, którego 2010 Mam na myśli. Mam nadzieję, że cieszył się obchody Nowego Roku. Dla nas, była kolacja w formie bufetu i tańca w Muscat Hotel Intercon. Wspaniałe jedzenie – straszne muzyki! To nie zacznie się poprawiać po godzinie północy uderzył, but by then we had to leave to collect the little ones from the babysitter. Overall still a pleasant evening, but would have been better with decent music.

Now for a quick catch-up on recent items of note. I’ve placed a link at the top of the page for Morgan Cmentarz. Some Kakoschke descendants are organizing headstones for ancestral graves there and are seeking contributions from other descendants. I’ve contributed and if you too are a descendant of Johann Friedrich Wilhelm Kakoschke hope that you will as well.

In other news, my daughter Skye and her husband Simon joined us here in Muscat for Christmas this year. It’s been great having them here and we took the opportunity to give the Hummer a good workout by doing a 3 day trip to the interior, visiting Jebel Shams, Wadi Damm, ancient (around 5,000 lat) tombs near the village of Bat and the spectacular An Nakhur Gorge with 1,500 metre cliffs rising above you. Fantastyczny! Also, Jebel Misht with nearly sheer cliffs rising to over 2,000m – quite spectacular too and such a pleasure to photograph. I’ve posted some photos to Picasa and below is a slide-show with some of them.

Well, that’s it for my first post of 2010. Cheers!
