Day before, me and hubby went out for a drive in the evening. Early this week there was rainfall and because of that the whole weather has changed. It has become very cool and pleasant and probably the last month to experience this beautiful weather. Then we will be in a 5 months of Summer, where outdoor activities would not be as fun as now. Also, hubby gifted me a new phone, and it's been a week now with my new phone but I had not got the opportunity to explore the lenses of my new Samsung S23. The Camera is very powerful with 100x zoom and I am so excited with my little new toy....hehe.

We decided to go towards the old city side where the Sultan Palace and the Museum is there and then to my favorite place the Marina, which is on the same road further going ahead. It's a nice long 20 kms drive one way from my home. The roads are very good and the part of the road sun through the coastal area so it's a nice view all through out.

The clarity is too good compared to my earlier phone, and the zoom is powerful. I kept experimenting, trying to click in different ways and modes. Though after seeing the output on the bigger screen I feel that I need to learn more about photography with my phone and sharpen my skills. Yesterday we were up in the Mountains and I clicked quite a lot of pictures there, which I will be sharing shortly. They have come out very well.

Driving through the city roads.

There is a beautiful Mosque on the way.

Picture of the same mosque as it gets darker. The lighting gives a very good effect.

Drive through the Palace area. In the past I have shared some pictures of this Palace, but the clarity here is much better then my older pictures.

The surroundings of the Palace. We spent some time here and then headed towards the Marina, where there is a Yacht club.

This is the City gate built in the olden times. It's like an entry into the Government officials area.

We reached the Marina Yacht club. There is a restaurant in this place, and hubby wanted to have something, but it was closed. We spent some time here and then headed back home.

Some pictures at the Marina.
