And just a quick post, mainly consisting of pictures. Here are a few shots that are representative of the classic gingerbread architecture of San'a, which I loved. So, here is a brief sampling of the new (well, the newer anyway) and the old (well, it's all old).

| I like this picture of the roof, featuring the classic architecture, the ancient door, the beautiful carpets (which my friend Trish may be trying to buy even as we speak) and the ubiquitous satellite dishes. |
 |
| In the previous picture you can just make out the stained glass windows. Here's a better shot of one, snapped when I was trapped in my room and awaiting rescue. |
