The Oasis

Next we were put into horse drawn carriages to tour an Oasis

Horses!

Kev and I

We passed a lot more date palms

Date palms are very versatile , this fence is made from branches

Another horse

In the Oasis many fruits grow

Such as oranges (which are green while still on the tree, we mistook them for limes at first!)

Lots of dates!

This man showed us how the dates are harvested

he climbed the tree with no safety equipment, he's 70!

Also growing in the Oasis are pomegranates 

More oranges

And peppercorns!
