Yes, I Like Camels!

Camel herd with (rare?) baby white camel
Someone recently asked me why I’ve included a photo of camels on my site. Simple answer, I am ‎fascinated by camels, and I always have been. ‎

As a young girl, I actually used to play with my Barbie and Ken dolls (I admit to having them), creating all kinds of adventures ‎for them as they traveled around distant places. I remember having a fairly elaborate script with them and some camels and Arabians traversing ‎the Western Sahara and even the Arabian Peninsula. These adventures must have been “created” after I ‎watched the film Lawrence of Arabia.‎

Looking back it’s really strange that I did that and now here I am in lands famous for their camels. Fortunately I like to take pictures of them!
