More on Camels

I’ve also been asked why if I am culturally sensitive I use camels in my blog. Answer: Because I can.‎

Seriously while I have been reminded that I might be sharing the wrong image of the Arabian Peninsula, like ‎I’ve said before, I like camels. I like to take pictures of them. And I can take pictures of them.‎

And I was just reminded about how much I like camels after reading this brief Smithsonian article on an "old sport" known as camel jumping. ‎Hum, I’ve never heard of a famous Yemeni high jumper.‎
