Wednesday 28 October 2026 ยท Corniche, Yasmina's visit, Al Balad, dinner, home
Our driver drops everyone at the mid-Corniche pin, chosen closer to Osama's mother's house. Daylight on the sea for Yasmina, sunset at 17:49, and the King Fahd Fountain down the coast, its 312 m jet on the skyline.
At 18:04 the driver takes Yasmina from the Corniche pin to the house in Ash Shati, waits out her 30 minute visit, and brings her back to the family at 19:08. Meanwhile: the fountain by night from the promenade.
Everyone together, Yasmina included: UNESCO coral-stone houses, Naseef House, Souq Al Alawi. Then dinner in the old town itself. Kim's Augmentin goes right after dinner. ๐
