Today I went down the road to Abu Dhabi. I'm embarrassed to admit that though I've lived in the Middle East for 1.5 yrs, I've never been to Abu Dhabi. I was told that it was quieter than Dubai and that the royal family lives there. It definitely was different-- lots of greenery, low rise buildings (though you can see many cranes and high rise buildings are rising up out of the sand) and has a much different vibe from Dubai.
Anyhow, on the road to Abu Dhabi I ended up behind a Toyota pick up truck. It took me a couple of minutes to realize what was in the flat bed as my mind was wandering. When I finally took a look, I think I actually shook my head a couple of times because I wasn't sure I was really seeing the scene in front of me. Not sure if he was heading to/from the camel market or camel races, but he sure looks comfortable back there doesn't he?
