A rare treat: A trip to a camel market. Most Saudis never see camels because they live in large cities.
Need to get a camel off a truck? Here’s how!
Taken in a Kindergarden classroom in Riyadh. Notice that on the Islamic calendar, the day, date and year are completely different. Boys and girls are in the same classroom at this age.

In Riyadh, you will want to eat at the Globe Restaurant in this building. In fact, look toward the top of the building and you can see the Globe!
We had the rare opportunity to meet with members of the Education Committee in Riyadh and sit in on the Shura Council as they met on Human Rights issues . Men sat on one side and women sat on another, protected behind mirrored glass. Six women, each with advanced academic degrees, have recently been appointed to audit the Council sessions. They were present when we attended.
If you look at previous posts, you’ll be able to see more photos that I’ve just added!
