Oil Refinery Factory

On the way back to Juffair, we were passing the Asry Oil Refinery Area and we spotted the whole complex looked really different under the summer evening and its many lights. We decided to stop and took some photos. I was so lucky, the shots turned out really nice as I was only using my N 91. For comparison, please see the earlier shot during the day time (though it was not the same angle but I managed to get the red and white chimney) hey is it called chimney in English?


Well, I guess I prefer the night shot then, do not you agree with me, dear readers?

One afternoon at Asry Beach

Last Saturday, we went to Asry beach near Juffair Port last Saturday (I hope my data is right, please correct me any Bahraini readers) recommended by some friends who had been there. A few minutes ride from where I am living as it is located nearby Juffair, just few minutes passed the big Bridge of Juffair Port.

There is a mosque nearby, some cold stores, allocated areas for the children with swings and playground and some gazebos for shades. It was quite a warm late afternoon and we all were looking forward to jump to the sea.

Upon arrival, we saw that there are already some crowds there; families, children, some youths swimming, making sand castle or just enjoying the late warm sunset.


The beach sign seems in need of renovation as the letters are mostly faded and unreadable.
