After leaving Dubai at 7:15am, the 2.5 hour flight landed at 8:45am local time.
After exchanging my visa letter for a the real one in my passport, I was through to customs at Sana'a International.
With my passport stamped I had officially entered Yemen
.
I was picked up at the airport by my driver Mr Abdul Hameed and guide, Mr. Mohammed.
It was Friday morning (i.e. the Islamic 'Sunday') but the streets were still quite busy.
We the headed to the nearby village of Wadi Dhar.
On the corner.
Girl & family.
The kids were happy to see a weird looking guy with a camera, so would come up saying "Soura, Soura", or photo in arabic
.
And even the adults too
