Flower Anne

On my trip to Lebanon I visited the shrine of Khola (AS) the three year old daughter of Imam Husain ibin Ali (AS).  It’s said that her brother pressed a straw into the ground to mark her grave and it grew into this magnificent tree.  Its the only time I’ve seen a tree in the actual haram.

Before we left dad made a new friend, Abbas. He helpped us around the shrine and then quided us to the ruins of Baalbeck (photos soon).
