Crisis?

While a lot of projects in the Middle East have been cancelled or at least delayed because of the financial/economic crisis, the sand here in Manifa is still flowing.

I'm now back for a second period in Saudi Arabia. It's winter now, and I feel it. Many peoplle might associat the Middle East with unbearable hot temperatures. But here in Manifa, temperatures are running pretty low. A few weeks ago we almost reached zere degrees during the night. Luckily the airco's here can also produce hot air.
