In the far left background two boats bob in the water

while the spinner by means of a corn-cob reduces the yarn to a more uniform size

On the shore behind it a large

View of tower houses built of rammed earth in the town of Dhahran

He wears a light coloured thobe (long shirt) with a square patterned ghutra (headscarf) tied around his head

Behind the launch a dhow (sailboat) is moored in the creek

while at the far right another member of the party stands in the sand

facing towards the right where a large pile of camping gear sits in the sand
