Postcards from Saudi
Many things like this are found at the camel market. I was told this is a back pack or bag to carry things in.
You know I love the shoes!
Also, that post card with the camels – is that a regular way of transporting them? I can tell you I didn’t expect to see flying camels when I woke up this morning!

hahaha I know I don’t know about that picture maybe it’s at the camel souk or something? haha

I’d never seen anything like it – it just doesn’t seem like the most effective way to move camels, but my entire experience with them is in zoos, so I probably have no idea what I am talking about.

I have 2 pillow cases from a market in the UAE which resemble your pillowcase from Saudi. I also had a woven bag which I sold before I left…I had a sale in my hotel apt. room because I couldn’t bring home everything after one year. I imagine you had a lot of stuff to consider and reconsider what to do with.

The place where I went to see the back pack and rugs, blankets there are no actual camels, it is near to the gold souk.I am not sure if that postcard picture is the actual market and there I would think you could. Sorry Terry, I really stayed in the home not going out to see these interesting things haha

Those suitcases on the car hood. Ha! I think something like that might have been done a time or two in my neighborhood. We are red necks in NEPA, for sure.
I, too, am interested in those camels flying through the air. How odd! I wonder what they are up to with that???

I have never seen the actual place where the camels are, but we stopped many times in the desert for him to get camel milk from a farmer!

Camel milk… how does that taste? Did you try it?
LikeLiked by 1 person
No haha I never tried it but he would stop when we were out driving. Camels and their hearders(i guess that is who they are) are just there with a tent tending to them. So we stopped quite often while they milked them and gave him milk!
