I signed up for a two day, one night camel safari. We boarded our beasts after a brief jeep ride and began a long day through the scrubby desert to the glorious Sam Sand Dunes. The camel drivers were also remarkable cooks, making us fresh chapatis and veg curry. I was all set to spend the night under the stars, but I could feel a cold coming on, and took the chance to jeep it home same night. A shame, I know, but why take chances with your health in India?
The entire year I spent in Korea, I NEVER thought I would encounter globetrotting Korean

Camel racing. Not exactly the Melbourne Cup, but good for a laugh.

Inside, a maze of temples, restaurants, and wonderful handicrafts. The colors on these blankets blew me away.
