One Hump or Two?

Initially, we were going to take a bus from Ahmedabad to Udaipur. However, it was a seven-hour drive on a non-air conditioned government bus. Now look, driving fast on the highway with the windows open, you don’t even feel the heat. Right? And think of the crazy cast of characters we could be sitting next to on the bus. Well, the other three weren’t having it so we rented a driver and an air-conditioned car. Though the trip was cut to just four hours, the drive was the most expensive transportation of the trip. Oh well, 3 to 1.

Anyway, here we have the camel, a reliable beast of burden, which we saw on our car ride. Yep, that camel is just walking down the street right next to buses, cars and trucks. Hey, just cause it doesn’t have a motor doesn’t mean it doesn’t belong. Oh, and you know what? I even saw some camels running down the street! Oh, if only I were able to catch a video of that!
