But yet, I still have many photos and several stories to tell about Abu Dhabi, and about our trip to Jordan.
So ...
In November, friend Hannah Davies and I went to "Polo at the Palace".
I had not been to a polo match before.
From what I understand, Emirates Palace developed this portion of their property specifically for hosting polo matches.
The tradition of divot stomping ...
I liked that the players and horses are so close ...
It seems a pretty straight-forward game. And the horses are impressive -- quick, agile, responsive to the riders.
You could order drinks (alcohol and non-alcohol alike), as well as snacks.
The weather was cool. There was a chance of rain, but stayed away. While the rain stayed away, it provided a really nice display before the sun set.
'Twas a lovely way to spend the afternoon :-)
