Hi all,

I've attached a few more pictures of home and work.




And some of downtown Jeddah




And Jeddah has many roundabouts with some strange sculptures in the middle - here's one!


Everything here is going well - this week is registration week so no teaching. Really cushy! Compound life seems to centre around sport and parties so should be fun for a while. However, you have to watch out for some of the homemade beverages. They have a rather interesting flavour!!!
