We Did Miss This !
We Did Miss This !
It took us about 15 minutes to find our way out of Umm Salal Muhammed and to get back onto Highway #1. Here’s a picture of what we did run across while driving around in Umm Salal Muhammed. You just can’t get away from them Golden Arches ! Can you see what they call the drive through? (top right, nope it’s McDrive !)
Once we got going North again on Highway #1, we saw indications that we were near Umm Salal Ali, but there was no way to get off the road! Honestly, we drove for another 30 km north before we came upon a really scary looking dirt road that would take us across to the other side of the highway. We stopped, took a look at the line of trucks barreling South and decided, we’d pass on backtracking 30 km to see some burial stones and another possible fort tower. We supposedly missed this:
So we continued North heading toward Al Khor, our first real destination.
