Mike Rice,
I just saw this one the news. Rumors say they were purchased by an "anonymous phone bidder" in the United States, and the Prince was only the representative for that buyer. I guess now that its out in the open, I can run this poste.

The festival also included a camel beauty contest, where thousands of owners strutted their animals in a bid for the top prize of finest overall camel and separate categories such as best neck, head, lips, nose, hump, legs or feet.

Sheik Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, the son of Dubai's ruler, Sheik Mohammed, bought 16 camels for $4.5 million, including one female camel for $2.7 million, the state news agency WAM reported.

Best wishes Mike, you and Carolyn by safe. If you need any help unloading the new camels, let me know.
