Britain's Prince Charles brandished a sword and took part in a traditional dance Saturday on his trip to Oman with his wife Camilla, the first full day of the couple's three-nation royal tour of the Gulf. Prince Charles gamely waved the sword amid singing and dancing, drawing smiles from those taking part. He later entered the National Museum, pausing at one point to look at traditional Omani khanjars, curved daggers carried ceremoniously at the waist by Omanis and those in neighboring Yemen. Their visit comes as rights groups have written Sultan Qaboos over the recent targeting of journalists by the country's Internal Security Service. Prince Charles and Camilla will travel to the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain as well on their weeklong trip.
