2012 Al Dhafra Camel Festival

I won't bore you with a million camel photos from the camel festival.  We went to this festival two years ago with Laura and had a fabulous time so we saw it was on again while Renee and Gerhard were with us.  Bert had hired a van to get around in while they were here so we headed off into the desert to the camel festival.

We had fun, it was smaller than last time we were there, probably because it was mid week but it was still great.  This picture is my favorite from the day. 

I will try and include a map just to show how remote an area this camel festival is.  You drive to the middle of nowhere (Madinat Zayed) then go about 20 kms past it, turn left and drive about 5kms into the sand and you are there.  The middle of nowhere.            camel festival in the middle of nowhere.
