We made our first visit to the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show last year, and we had no idea how beautiful these Arabian horses were.

We visited the tour today, and found our hosts very friendly. They greeted us at the gate with free Bloody Marys, the air was filled with the aroma of a mesquite bonfire, there were free hors d’ oeuvres, and the crowd was consistently providing oohs and aahs as a constant parade of Arabian horses were paraded for the crowd to see.
