Team Trump have let their hair down on the first night in Saudi Arabia by taking part in a traditional sword dance.
President Donald Trump was spotted swaying and smiling as he stood shoulder to shoulder with Saudis for the ceremonial male-only sword dance on Saturday.
Trump's Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross were more inclined to get involved as they linked arms with the men next to them and awkwardly danced to the drum beats as they held their swords.
The dance took place outside the King Abdulaziz Historical Center as First Lady Melania Trump, Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and daughter Ivanka watched on.
While Trump's Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Chief Strategist Steve Bannon also made a brief appearance, they didn't appear to join in the ceremonial dancing.

President Trump was spotted laughing as he held the sword during the traditional sword dance

The welcome took place before a state dinner in Trump's honor with the Saudi king and other senior Saudi royals.


The menu was set to include an array of dishes, including steak and ketchup alongside lamb and hefty portions of rice.


It comes after the Trumps were greeted by the Saudi king and a long red carpet when they landed in the capital, Riyadh, for the president's first overseas visit in office.


He touched down in the Middle East Saturday morning, hours after tweeting about his excitement for his first 'big foreign trip.'
Trump flew to Riyadh overnight on Air Force One – becoming the only president to make Saudi Arabia, or any majority Muslim country, his first stop overseas as president.



His arrival following a 6,700-mile flight was met with the pomp usually reserved for the likes of a Papal welcome in South America.
The president got the red carpet treatment – literally – and some airport workers took off their shoes before manicuring it with brooms in 97-degree heat.




The Saudi King later presented Trump with the kingdom's top civilian honor, the gold King Abdulaziz medal, at the royal court.

It would be funnier if he was in some Latin American country doing the tango with his wife.

It's a hundred and ten degrees in that courtyard. Looks by the last two pictures that Donnie wants to be on to the dealmaking.
