African Queen




Our last KSAC group activity was today: camel riding! We went out to Tanji, a fishing village along the coast, to Camel Safari Co. Ltd. They saddled (or seated) up the camels, we all jumped in our seats, and the camels swayed upright. Our guide took us along a really skinny bridge, down along the beach, and then up through some salt flats. Riding the camels was really bumpy and wobbly. The camels make a lot of grumbling noises and are constantly chewing, spitting and pooping. However, I am glad we did it because it was our first "touristy" thing we did here and it was a laugh.


The camels all lined up and ready to go. I was under the impression they would be saddled, like horses. But this way is more life threatening.


We're up in the air!


Going along the beach.


Michelle and Tiereney thought it was an amusement park ride.


It's pretty obvious I wanted to stay far away from the camels.
