Show along Oman coastline MUSCAT, OMAN 6-9 MAY We spent four sweltering days in Muscat helping celebrate the 150th sailing anniver- sary of the Oman! vessel " Al Sultanah " . This ship carried the first Arab trade and diplomatic legation to New York City. Mus- cat offered world class hotels and pristine white beaches for the crew to enjoy. Oman is a combination of rugged, arid mountains and desert coupled with lush green valleys. The country is ruled by His Excellency. Sul- tan Qaboos. He ascended to the throne by overthrowing his father in a coup in the late 1950 ' s. Sultan Qaboos personally tours Oman once a year in a convoy of four wheel Mercedes to hear complaints and grievances from his chieftains. Muscat was a welcomed break from our routine in the Gulf.
