Hey friends,
Solution: The footprints leading away from the house gave Mr Dinsmore away. A burglar would use the lader to enter the house, but leave through the front door - especially with a painting of this considerable size.

Do you know which mosque is the oldest one on earth? It is Al-Masjid-Al-Haram. It is a very sacred mosque, where the Kaaba is situated. Kaaba, the holy box like structure covered with the black cloth “Kiswah” with gold lining, is at the centre of the mosque.
Thousands of pilgrims visit the mosque every year to perform Hajj or Umrah.
So did you wonder what the inside of the Kaaba looks like? Only some people get the golden chance to look inside but if you search on YouTube you will find a video showing what’s
inside. It is lined with marble and a green cloth covering the upper walls. It seems someone took a phone with himself and took a video of the inside of the Kaaba, one of the most holy places on earth! AnikA JAnnAt
