Camels
Thursday, October 27th, 2005Camels
We went on a camel safari in the middle of the desert, while staying in a 5 star mud hut. An experiance we will never forget, camles bounce when they run and you often feel you will fall off. It is the way they stand up thats the interesting point, they start my getting to their knees, front legs first so you are leaning forward then onto their back knees so you lean backwards then on to their feet, all the time holding on for dear life. Going down sand dunes is hairy as the camel leans forward trying to feet a foothold on the loose sand while going down hill. It is a tourist falling off camels back waiting to happen.
A very enjoyable experiance, have the bruises to prove it.
Our mud hut was nice with ensuite in the middle of desert. Just no doors, holes in wall for windows, and the western toilet no flush. No shower or sink in the ensuite. All in all a nice mud hut, great view from the bd to toilet and out the front door.
