Dear , thanks for your interest in Afaranwide.

10 Things We Learned Making Our Website: On Friday we published the tenth section of our series on creating a website from scratch. We hope that, taken together, the 10 parts provide a useful overview for anyone planning to embark on this journey. On Monday we'll round off the series with a piece listing what's under the bonnet of Afaranwide – the various WordPress elements we used to create it. And we’ll be posting more about our experiences as newbie bloggers over the coming months.

The interview appeared in Telum’s weekly newsletter on Thursday, and you can read it here.

Watching Hong Kong's Pink Dolphins: "Dolphins are of course charming and delightful at any time, but pink ones are at a whole new level of cuteness..." On Friday we published a piece on the fabulous pink dolphins that live in the waters around Hong Kong.

Jeddah's Giant Sculptures: Next week we head off to this port city on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast for a look at the extraordinary collection of  monumental sculptures that stand on the Corniche. They include works by Jean Miró (below), Henry Moore, Jean Arp and César Baldaccini.
