This is a recipe for silicosis. How did you deal with it while in-country?
We stayed indoors ALL THE TIME with their BODACIOUS A.C.
Each home had TWO huge A.C. units so if ONE broke down there was a second one to kick on. We kept our car windows rolled up with the A.C. on full blast.
We did play golf, but we played early in the morning and the golf course was not in the direction of ANY wind blowing toward it. The fumes never bothered us on the golf course (all sand and we carried a little square of green plastic "grass" to hit off of).
ARAMCO and the Saudis had more money than God.
I did play some slow pitch softball for a while. It was at night, when it was SLIGHTLY less hot but we all suffered with the air, so I did give it up.
We also traveled A LOT. We saw all the places we KNEW we'd never get to from home/USA. It was our adventure of a lifetime. We came home after five years...it was time and we SURE missed the good ole USA, the BEST country in the world!!
