High on a mountain top... |

Me and M on a 1 year old camel |
|
This was one scary ride... not only was the camel young and afraid of everything, but the saddle wasn't straight or secure. Not my favorite ride. |

Walking stick anyone? |
|
Dave and Richard both bought these cool walking sticks, and had metal secured to both ends. Dave's was all decked out with colors and wire decorations. |

Pitchforks... |

were also a common tourist purchase |

While we waited for Dave and Richard to finish with their stick purchases, this little guy was "flirting" with Kelly, M and I. |

Cute baby... |

I assume the girl is his sister, because she looks way too young to be his mother, but in India, you never know. |

This woman was parked in the middle of the street selling her pots. It's amazing she wasn't trampled. |

this one wouldn't budge. He actually got really fiesty as we passed and the camel boy whipped him pretty good. |
