Rajasthan camel safari

These are old photos I've scanned, but they bring back memories......... camels with bad breath and belching, spitting and farting the whole time ...... amazing nights of cloudless skies packed full with stars.... the starkness of the desert with friendly villagers.......

    Rajasthan has several towns with fascinating architecture, maybe you've heard of the famous Palace of the Winds in Jaipur . There are also lots of famous and beautiful forts, at Jodphur, Amber, Udaipur and the famous Lake Palace Hotel at Udaipur . The havelis are beautiful mansions. There's a famous camel fair at Pushkar. I stayed in an old palace now converted into a hotel and went riding on the Mahahraja's horses! I was there in 1988, so long ago. You should go, you would love it and its so photogenic.

    Lucky my camel man was only a youngish boy, cos some of the women had trouble with their camel men getting too friendly behind them on the camel :-)
