The show has been a super success apparently,and has been on Oman TV running in full length...the papers are full of reports and pictures,and
last night at a gala dinner given fittingly I thought by the Ministry
of Finance,the Government of Oman congratulated and thanked the entire
crew and all performers in this gigantic event.
The bottom line...."The Sultan was very pleased!"
The
three hunderd horses that bwere flown in from Europe are on their way
home,including ours...they are expected to land in Frankfurt in the
evening.
Our plane leaves early this afternoon and we will also be landing late afternoon....
I
rode Famous yesterday morning just to stretch his legs and give him
some exercise,and there was a real sense of desert mirage in the whole
setting...where thousands had just been,it was empty and still...the
camels just walked off into the hills going back to wherever they came
from...
And so my adventure OMAN has come to a close,and when the
horses have landed safe and sound I will be able to say it was a
wonderful and completely different experience in a horse world that is
amazing!
I hope you have enjoyed these little reports, and if you are
ever travelling this way,stop in at the Shangri-La Hotel in
Muscat,Oman,you wont be disappointed!
PS Some of the others have
taken a few more days off and are going on a desert adventure...camping
with the Bedouins in the desert,just camels and tents and sand - sand -
sand!
Somehow, Im ready to get back to business,and I hope my two
French Bulldogs are still talking to me after this week long absence!
Take care,and New Year wishes to all!
