Muscat is pretty cold these days, thanks to some rains in the early part of the week. The current weather is akin to my native place – Kodagu – except for the greenery around. Here in Muscat, its time for weekend barbeque parties. Last week, we had one in our friend’s place, and I just loved it. Muscat gets lively during winter with a host of events from December till February, including the famous Muscat Festival.
