Obama's Granny arrives at the Hajj.

<--- Obama's Granny cozies up to Property tycoon Dr Sulaiman Al Fahim and gets her first all expenses hajj offer but the King of Saudi Arabia senses a pr coup and invites her to attend at his expense instead.

From AKI:

"The grandmother of US president Barack Obama has arrived in Saudi Arabia for the 'Hajj' or Islamic pilgrimage to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, a Saudi daily said on Wednesday. Sarah Obama, 87, is being accompanied by a nephew and Obama's cousin, Omran."

There's no word on whether or not the man who picked up the tab for her trip, aka the Donald Trump of Abu Dhabi, was with her entourage.

Time Out: She was issued an invitation by Saudi King Abdullah? And he's paying the freight now? I guess that bow was good for something after all!

Sarah Obama, one of her grandchildren and 10 people from her village in Kenya made the pilgrimage at the invitation of Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah, the newspaper reported.

The Saudi monarch invites Muslims from around the world to make the pilgrimage at his expense each year. Among his nearly 3,000 guests this year, almost 2,000 are relatives of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
