Camels and Jaipur

My siblings and I were in Rajasthan last January.


Camel Safari a few hours outside Jaisalmer 
















This is a photo of our trusty guide, Prakash, in his element.  In addition to the basic guide responsibilities, Prakash proved an excellent cook and singer.  I cannot recall the camel's name, but one of Prakash's camels was a champion race-camel.  Wow.




Emily and I froze our butts off all night, while sleeps-like-a-rock Derek, was apparently warm enough to get some rest.  Fortunately, we all warmed up once the sun returned.























My camel was faster than the rest of the slow-pokes.  Georgie, our new English friend, joined us too.  She is the most excited one.

 

After we ditched the camels, we headed to:
 Jaipur 













"Derek... I have to tell you something: thanks for carrying the backpack today.  For serious."


















And apparently this is when Emily and Derek caught me being a coffee snob -

"These beans were totally ground yesterday!"
