Sarah Palin Has Nothing On Yemen

I read a brief Associated Press interview recently that Sarah Palin’s unwanted biographer has completed his research. During his six months in ‎town, Sarah and her husband had installed a hastily-constructed fence to shield her ‎neighbors from viewing her home in Alaska. While her home improvement is probably a sight in the wide open spaces of Alaska, it’s nothing to what ‎a friend calls the Yemeni house abaya. ‎

Take a quick look at the house abaya of Yemen.

Eid Shopping Bags!

Just found wonderful bags for the last day of Ramadan (or Eid shopping) but the one below is perfect for BIA. I just love the caption. Oh and the bald eagle bag to the left says "See the World". I'm doing it!

       Happy Eid to all!

More on Camels

I’ve also been asked why if I am culturally sensitive I use camels in my blog. Answer: Because I can.‎

Seriously while I have been reminded that I might be sharing the wrong image of the Arabian Peninsula, like ‎I’ve said before, I like camels. I like to take pictures of them. And I can take pictures of them.‎

And I was just reminded about how much I like camels after reading this brief Smithsonian article on an "old sport" known as camel jumping. ‎Hum, I’ve never heard of a famous Yemeni high jumper.‎
