Ras Tanura

About 45 minutes away from us is another Aramco community - Ras Tanura.  It's on the beach and it is beautiful.  It's much smaller than Dhahran but the beach makes it a really fun day trip!


 It's beautiful.
 And there were seashells to collect - bonus!


They have this splash pad above the beach where you can rinse the saltwater and sand off.  It's black.  
Pooped out on the bus ride home.

This was on our way to the beach another day.  I just love this picture.
This is at the playground near our park.  They use sand instead of rubber mulch.  Elisabeth insists on wearing her swimsuit everywhere and has taken to making sand angels.

That looks much nicer than back here! I am sure the water is as well. I love the pictures of your home. The kids have grown a bit. Keep updating us.
