Camels

Today, weekend in Saudi, we went for another trip to the desert. We went to the Red Sand Dunes area, 80km West of Riyadh, where we were told we could rent quads to have some quad-fun in the dunes. We couldn't find the place though and, after riding circles, we ended up in a bedouin camp where we stopped to ask for directions. They couldn't help us, but were very friendly and invited us to stay for a while, showed us their camels, let us take pictures, gave us camel milk to drink, and gave us their e-mail to send the pictures to. Yes, they have e-mail!!! And mobile phones too!!
The quads will have to wait for next time...and who knows, stop by at our new friends...
