Poetry Of, Inspired Or By Royals
Here are some poems by Arabian royals/rulers, there is the beautiful one Hamdan wrote for his mother, one by Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and one Mohammed wrote for Princess Haya ( to me it seems as if he recycled some parts from a different poem he wrote or at least used very similiar phrasing) but most interesting I find
"A complaint against myself" which he wrote for...? Well, it´s worth a read- I didn´t know where to post this,so I hope it´s right here:-)

You GOT your wish done babe!! I can speak fluent portuguese and the video is solely about how sheikh hamdan supports Skydiving and hes hired only the best skydiving trainers to b part of his skydiving team. Mostly brazilians and an american guy as well and that place where his got his private tunnel is NOT his palace. That's his private playground for him and his closest friends. Therefore its not open for the "public" and that's outside his house.

Sheikh Nasser and Sheema
I looked and I didn't see this posted yet (I might have missed it tho.) Its a video of Sheikh Mohammed's granddaughter Sheema and her father Sheikh Nasser. Its not pictures, hes talking and holding her during some type of interview. Hes really cute with her. I wish I knew what he was saying. At one point he tries to get Sheema to shake hands with someone and say hi. Adorable!

He said Sheema is supporting him in every race, and that he will win that day just to honour her so she will come in every race with him 
Thanks for the video too.

It appears that no one mentioned it yet but Sheikh Mohammad has a new iPhone app out. It's free and it is really great. It features two languages (Arabic and English) News, Sports, photos, videos, and poems. You can upload what you want to share at Facebook or Twitter with the touch of a button. Very nicely done. I am not sure if there is one for Android (or Blackberry). The name of it is "H.H.S MbR"

It always makes me happy to see such a happy family:-) That video is really cute  Sheema has such huge eyes,maybe she can cast magic spells to make her fathers horse faster & stronger, I remember some time ago he had to drop out because one of the horses was injured or unable to run for some reason,but I can´t remember when....

Maria Alvarez Ponton won the race individually followed by Sheikh Mohd. (2nd) and Hamdan (3rd). But its the UAE Team which won the endurance competition since Majid came out 6th and Rashid Bin Dalmook 7th.

Now I remember reading an article about Maria in a newspaper,I just didn´t know it was this race:-) It´s cool that in this sport women and men can compete against each other not like in other sports where you have seperate teams for women and men!
