In the evening, try and select a place to eat that has a view of the fortress which is lit with lights making a beautiful backdrop.

I went with friends to Trio, which is considered the best restaurant in town with good reviews from Lonely Planet and Frommers Guide.

The food is good, catering for tourists and rich locals. The view is fantastic, so try and reserve an outside table upstairs looking towards the fort.

On our last day fo the camel trek sometime about mid-afternoon we could see a stream of dust coming across the desert. After a while this stream of dust approached us. It was M.S. the Hotel Owner. He asked us if we wanted to join him for a New Years Celebration. Well my attitude was "How much is this going to cost"? And he said Free hmmm....sounds like a great deal to me!! So we had to make our way across the desert and get back to town by early evening so we couldn be hauled back out into the desert by Jeep! M.S. wasn't joking! He had all kinds of food set up on tables! The alcohol was flowing in the form of Desert Moonshine! And other mind altering appetisers were there too! After a great night of having way to much fun I woke up in the morning face down in the sand and not inside my sleeping bag! Needless to say I don't do wild stuff like that anymore!!

In the evening all we did was tell stories or listen to the stories and then listen to the dogs or coyotes howl. Staring at the stars was a favorite pasttime too! We could see many satelites passing overhead

Dress Code: You will want a warm sweater or light jacket. I remember now that I put the wrong information into one of my tips!! I didn't have a sweatshirt with me!! I had a shawl type wrap that the locals used that's what I wore around my shoulders in the evening before climbing into my sleeping bag. Sorry but this trip was 1985...I'm having fun building this page as I'm reliving the trip in my mind!!
Here in the photo you can see the moon and the camels are starting to bed down for the evening.
