Tammwinat or grocery store (corner store)
On nearly every strteet you find one, especially where there are residents. They have everything from milk to diapers and much in between. They are you friendly neighborhood buqalahs or corner stores. Yes, they deliver, seems convenient for those women and families that would rather stay home and have their goods delivered for free.
CHECK OUT THE VIDEO! Let me know what you think?
Shaykh Luhyadan's Masjid
Mashsa'Allah the Shaykh's home and masjid are less than 10 minutes away from where we live.

Ladies Nite Out!
These two photos are of Bur'jon fun place. It's only for women and kids. It has rides and games inside and you can get your BigMac on. That is MacD's on the right hand side.
Bushra Ladies Mall is for women only. Sorry brothers.
Likewise, the Mamlika Tower has floors designated only for women to shop on.
Wanasa World is also for women only and it offers classes and a multitude of activities for women, from what I have been told.

1988 Trooper before and after videos
Before
This 1988 Isuzu Trooper I purchased while living in Sharjah, UAE. I have had it for about 6 years now. I actually drove it across the border from the Emirates to Saudi Arabia, all alone. I would NOT recommend this, however. It was quite an adventure driving through the miles and miles (about 4 or 5 hours) of Saudi desert, with no clue of where you are and no indication of how long it will take to get there.
After
These videos also give you a little idea of streets here. You can see the masjid is just down the street in the beginning of the before video.

Eastern Region Photo
This is a photo of boats in the eastern part of the country, the Persian gulf is right on the other side of those trees. We often drive to the coast to get away from Riyadh, change the scenery and visit friends. The ride is about 3hrs and 40 minutes from Riyadh to Dammam. There is also Khobar and Jubail to visit. One popular spot is the Half Moon beach.
