Camel treking in the Thar Desert

From Jaisalmer

This experience is best summed up by the pictures, so we will just do a quick rundown of our time on a camel:
1) It's quite beautiful
2) A bit painful
3) After 30 minutes, it's pretty much all the same
4) After 8 hours, it's definitely all the same
5) It helps if you have the soundtrack to Ishtar or Lawrence of Arabia.
6) Camels fart and burp. A LOT.
7) The sand dunes are more beautiful and wonderful than almost anything you can imagine.
8) Unless you are in a space shuttle, it's impossible to imagine that stars ever get brighter than laying under them in the middle of the desert.
