A quick glimpse …

… of the valley I spoke of yesterday, where we were in the province of Homs.

 

From our hotel, the Krak des Chevaliers castle. We stood atop it for a long time, to take in the magnificent panoramic views of the valleys.

The other side of the valley, from my hotel room. (The castle is just to the left.) Those are olive trees on the terraced hills.

The look of the houses next to the hotel, sharing the view of the valleys.

    As I read all the blogs I envision in my mind how things may look or seem. When the pictures come through it’s a form of completion for me to put the whole story together. Amazingly sometimes it’s just as I had thought and then other times it’s not anything that I had imagined. All that to say thanks for the photo update. Enjoyed them as always.
