This was the first day we escaped the crowds and noise of Damascus and experienced a different part of Syria. Below are random pictures of our trip to Saydnaya and Maaloula.

The mountains seem to form a natural wall

President's photo in Maaloula

We got out often in Maaloula to see interesting things

I saw this young boy walking home after school

A closer look

So many neat sights in this area

Abu Muhammad enjoyed the trip as well!

ReplyDelete*smooch!* Ha, ha, Niki! You are so right. I never even looked at the rock. My eyes always went to the hole where the light was. Thanks for pointing that out! :-)
