It may mean Wednesday and “hump” day in the US but in India
it means, “camel rides!!!” Today we had the chance to spend the morning with
Ram and his two-humped sidekick, Battle. While tigers may be the main
attraction at Ranthambore Park, we were captivated by our jaunt into own in our
camel drawn carriage. Ram had friends
that seem to sell everything from saris to masala tins and the image of blonde
women (and Jeff) seemed to draw a lot of attention from the townfolk. When we “parked”
Battle in the town square, we were concerned that someone might steal him. That seemed to give Ram quite a chuckle and
he assured us Battle would be waiting for us. For future reference, camel
rides, much like elephant rides, are quite bumpy, higher up than you might
imagine and both love their banana treats.
