Camel Races

And, they're off...


Coming back to the 'moving bleachers', a.k.a. the vehicles. This is what it looked like when we were waiting for a race to start and then everyone runs to their cars and jumps in to peal down the road alongside the racetrack. The camels are ridden by robot jockeys operated by remote control in the owner's land cruisers driving along the other side of the track! Amazingly, NO ACCIDENTS!
At the finish line, the camels were pretty tired by the finish, I think the race is about 5 kms long.


Picnic at the beach

A great big ocean and one small fisherman :0)
