camels!

Friday November 30, 2007 at 12:44PM

I have a new favorite animal: the camel...

camel race #2
camel race #2
I've been to the camel race track this morning and had a look at a lot of camels and the race... Very interesting :-)    (Have a look at my stream for more photos...).

And I like this place more and more..... :-)

The weather gets a bit cooler and less humid which is just perfect (in my opinion) now. Also the mountains finally appeared and I am still stunned whenever I see them (from my window, in the driving mirror... everywhere :-))

So now I am sitting in my favorite Internet Café, overlooking the Lagoon (in beautiful afternoon light) with its mangroves, some high-rise buildings and the even higher mountains in the background... sigh... Bloody hell I am really busy with my work here and cannot drive around or sit at places like this the whole day...

 

Have a wonderful weekend! :-)

I can't imagine how painful the rides must be for the jockeys. I think that my gajimbas have just risen back in to body just thinking about it!

How could one get lonely when there are camel races? I appreciate the way you document the culture there -- something new for us Californians who don't get out much .. Be well ...

Uh, that reminds me of someones blog entry yesterday.
Camels in a truck, parked in front of a meat market...

I mean, we eat horse meat, but can you eat camel meat??

I used to be Vegetarian... (looooooooong ago...).
I haven't had a chance to eat Camel meat and I am not eager to. But if I had the chance, I would try... (I also tried cangaroo and crocodile in Australia... One day I will go straight to hell anyway...).
