Did hear a lot about Wafra; its vegetable and poultry farms. So decided to go and see it ourselves. This place is close to Saudi border. On the way to the Wafra farms, we saw lot of camels and tents on both side of the main road in the desert. It was a 45minutes drive from our house in Abu Halifa. Was delighted to see so much of green area with farms and farm houses. We stopped at a big farm and checked if there was anyone to take permission to enter the farm. We met a Pakistani caretaker who along with 4 others took care of the estate. He allowed us to go in. We moved around and took pictures. For few minutes I just forgot that we are in a desert country. So many trees, vegetable farms…..a lovely picture! The worker’s were packing vegetables to send them to the shopping malls. Not only vegetables, the farm had camels, sheep’s, goats, hens and birds. We returned after stopping for 2hours.
