Falcons and Arabians

We went back to the Souq Waqif to show Papa around.  We also picked up Nicole, Buddy's wife who is visiting here.  When we arrived in the parking lot, we saw all the camels being ridden back into their spot after their morning walk along the waterfront.

After the camels, we headed over to the falcon souq.  We got really lucky and a man let us hold one of the falcons.

We also walked around and found the arabian horses that belong to the Emir.  They were very calm and sweet.  One of the horse keepers was very nice and told us all about each horse and let us sit in the relaxing area of the horse corral.  It was cool.

I also took a couple of pictures of the cute animals in the pet section of the Souq.
