Camels In Doha, Qatar
Last week, we chatted about the beautiful horses travelers can see for free in Doha, Qatar.
The camel pen is right next door to the horse pen in the old city! And it is open for viewing also.
I don’t find camels beautiful. (grins) They are very similar to moose (I adore moose) in their usual faces and forms. But they are magnificent. And they are strong. And they DEFINITELY have unique personalities, which makes them a lot of fun to watch.
This camel looks like he’s yelling over the fence at the neighbors.
This camel stole a ‘kiss’ while I was distracting her pen mate.

Horses In Doha, Qatar
Last week, I talked about how cats rule Dubai.
They rule Doha, Qatar also.
As do horses.
Horses are…everywhere. (grins) Visitors can watch horse races. They can ride horses over nearby sand dunes.
And they can visit the stables in the middle of the old part of the city. For FREE!
The horses, many of them beautiful Arabians, can be seen in their pens, eating and frolicking and doing horse things.
They can also be seen in the buildings, in their stables. The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I walked right into the buildings and that type of spontaneous visiting seemed to be encouraged. We watched as locals brought treats for the horses and fed them. Some kind souls offered us some of the treats so we could feed the horses also.
It was a horse lover’s dream!
