The trip

 The trip was spontaneous, beginning with three friends from Bahrain and later, a surprise addition—an old friend from Khobar, known for his mischievous nature. What started as a simple plan to visit Tarut Island, just after Dammam, turned into an unexpectedly memorable journey. Despite the hot and humid weather, the desert landscape surprised us with patches of greenery, mangroves, and a picturesque seashore park. The journey was punctuated by delightful moments, with delicious food and tea adding rich flavors to our experience. One of the highlights was the visit to a heritage village, which evoked a deep sense of nostalgia. Surrounded by memories of chalkboards, old stereos, vintage cameras, Hero pens, and the lifestyle of the 80s and 90s, we were transported back in time. It was a trip that blended history, friendship, and the simple joys of life in a way we hadn’t anticipated.
