Riyadh

Good morning from Riyadh! The sun is already shining brightly in a clear, azure sky, pushing the temperature to a warm 32°C even at 8:26 AM, signaling the start of another beautiful, albeit hot, day. The city is buzzing with the morning rush, as people head to work and school, but you'll still find many enjoying a leisurely breakfast with family before the heat truly sets in, often accompanied by strong Arabic coffee and sweet dates. There's a palpable energy as the city awakens, with the scent of oud and cardamom occasionally wafting through the air, adding to the distinct local charm.
