Camel milk has more calcium than any other milks.  It has lower fat, calcium rich. Camel milk contains lanolin, a good moisturizer. The site says this provides calming and soothing effect on our skin. Camel milk carries naturally occurring anti-aging properties.

Al Ain, a short drive from Dubai


Al Ain, UAE


A one and half hour drive from Dubai is the city of Al Ain, the Palace Museum is worth the drive
The Palace of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan was built in 1937.





















Big doors with tiny doors

The grounds are surrounded by a wonderful wall

Paying homage to the heritage of Sheikh Zayed, the tent that he used to host guests during the winter has been erected in the palace.


Kitchen pots are very large







The Al Ain Souq has wonderful colour, it is busy with local shoppers


These Palm pods are very popular











Muslim women from the Middle East wear a kind of metal mask called a batulla,   Susanna was very curious about it


I could not resist a stop to see the dunes





 


Al Ain is fun to share with visitors
