Omani Woes

You may remember that I started this blog because I was going to Oman to study Arabic for 2 months.  Oman is one of the more stable Middle Eastern countries, but it, too, has been having protests.  Check out this article from Slate.

Eureka Springs

Had a great weekend there!  We stayed at the Bavarian Inn on Highway 62.  We always stay here because it's a good price and its right next to the Bavarian Inn Restaurant, which is one my favorites!

We had a great time in Eureka.  We hiked all up and down the hills geocaching, and on Saturday we watched the St. Patrick's Day parade.  I took a ton of photos, I'm just trying to figure out where to put them.  I'll put up a link once I have one.

If you've never been to Eureka, you really ought to.  It can be a little touristy and in the summer it gets crowded but it's got some funky little shops and some good food too.
