An email from Susanne:

Quite an adventure yesterday - I took the boys on a 3 hour scuba trip from our hotel. We happen to be the only ones on board and had I known all the details I think I wouldn't have done it! From the harbour at the hotel we took a speed boat put into the main bay where we stopped at the coast guard and had to show our passports - why passports for scuba diving you ask? Well it so happened that we were headed to the international waters just off the coast of Iran for our dive!!! It wasn't bad diving but not worth the anxiety! 

Going into the desert tomorrow then heading home on Saturday. It's been quite an adventure!
