    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I worked in Saudi for a couple of years, been inside Mecca city limits too, not bad for a non muslim. It's not such a bad place, in fact the land although dusty and dry, is very beautiful.

    There is this place in Jeddah. https://www.halaltrip.com/attraction...ppy-land-park/

    We used to drive past it when we drove along the Corniche on the edge of the Red Sea. Beck then, it was called The Atallah Happy Land for Men, it seems the name has changed now.

    That was back in 1991 when I was there. I think it has changed a little now.
