Just after the camel trek

Howdy All!
I must say the blog is currently nothing to speak of, but all of us will be working hard the next couple of days to get it up and running with pictures and stories. However, until then, I will speak shortly of the Camel Trek.
I think everyone had a great time getting to know the camels and seeing a more remote side of India. Often, in the States, we take for granted all of the wide open space that we can escape to, but here it was truly different to be away from the bustling crowds of the city. Though just as in the cities of India, there were people from many different backgrounds traveling with us. Some camel herders, native to the land, some Indian tourists, and a couple from the New England. To my knowledge everyone rode a camel a least once. We all got a little sunburnt, but nothing too bad. So far, there seems to be more home sickness than anything else.
We will be spending the next few nights in Jodhpur; so, everyone will have a chance to post to the blog and send a few personal emails home to the fam.
