A quick note about me in traditional arab/muslim attire. Contrary to common belief to cover one's hair and body isn't to show one's religion as Muslim, rather, it's function is to be modest according to cultural standards. There is more I could add, but I just wanted to make sure no one thought this was somehow being disrespectful to Islam (since I'm not Muslim). Most Omanis would be thrilled to see me dress like this regardless of my religion. :)
