The hang of things...

Okay, I think I have the hang of how this works.  Its not difficult at all.   I am going to try really hard to keep this updated.  I am a housewife and mother of four children.  I live in Nizwa Oman.  My husband, Martin, works at the University of Nizwa as a teacher.  Two of my children live close to their father in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. My other two children aged 5 and 9 live with me here.   I am originally from Worcester, South Africa.

The reason why I called this blog a Whaletail is because I have lived in Hermanus where the southern right whale comes every year to give birth to their young.  I have been to central Africa, the dreary cold UK and a few other spots along the way but I find that Hermanus is the most beautiful place in the world. I guess I fell in love with the place in my early twenties. Perhaps one day I will go back there but right now there is just too much to see and experience.

There are other people doing very interesting blogs on the life here in Nizwa. These others can afford to see all the tourist sights and sounds.  Because we are a family we do not stay in the nicer hotels, visit the tourist hotspots and eat at all the best restaurants.  We pack our picnic basket and hopefully a tent, get in the car and explore the countryside.  I hope you, the reader, find this blog entertaining. This is our life, welcome!
