More Muscat, Please

Didn't we promise you some Omani blog action? We're too good to you folks. If you got interested in the country (which is on the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula, between Yemen and the UAE) like we did because of the Amazing Race's pit stop there, this post is for you. Of course, Tony Wheeler of Lonely Planet thinks Oman's going to be next big thing, as well. It's probably one of the few things that he and Phil from the Amazing Race agree upon.
The Muscatis covers the vagaries of life in Oman. It's perfect entryway into the world of Muscat, (the capital) and the daily life of a resident there. The blog is pretty in-depth; there's stuff about the higher education system and zoning, for example, but don't let that scare you off. There are posts about iPods and toothpaste, too. Anyway, check it out, so that when you get to Oman, you'll know a lot more about it than the Amazing Racers did.
