Getting ready in the morning
by herzog63
The camels were sleeping late on this morning. They make lot's of funny sounds in the morning actually they make lot's of funny sounds all the time. Sometimes they had this sac come out of their mouth and they would make this loud gurgleing sound! The first time I saw that was while we were riding along and I got a little scared as I thought the beast was dying!! hahahaha I got used to it after a while though! I needed windsheld wipers on my glasses to wipe all of slime off them that was flying off the the sack hanging out of his mouth!! Yummy!!
Camel trek
by munki
A camel trek around Jaisalmer from one to five days is a must and the best way to get a real taste of life in the desert. I strongly recommend doing one even if it is a one-day camel trek. Very few tourists come to Jaisalmer and do not do one, they are extremely popular and camel safaris are big business in town. The competition between the commission men is fierce and ruthless. Most guesthouses organize the trek.

They bring the camels to the starting point of the trek (normally from miles away), they walk all the trek for days, they load and unload the cargo, they cook lunch and dinner on a small fire, they clean the metallic plates and casseroles with sand, they sing desert local songs at night with an empty large carafe as the only musical instrument, they prepare your bed (a hole in the sand and a blanket), the list of task is endless….
Camel Safari
by tremendopunto
Jaisalmer is a perfect place to try a camel safari. You can do a daytrip for some hours, a couple of days up to a several week trip to Bikaner to get the real caravan feeling.....
It is great fun, especially when you arrive from the desert and see the oasis of Jaisalmer on the horizont. ike a fatah morgana :-)
Oh, one little warning, if you are not used to spreading your legs it can get painful after a while....
Patwon-Ji-Ki-Haveli
by mallyak
This is one of the largest and most elaborate Haveli in Jaisalmer and stands in a narrow lane. It is five storeys high and is extensively carved. It is divided into six apartments, two owned by archaeological Survey of India, two by families who operate craft-shops and two private homes. There are remnants of paintings on some of the inside walls as well as some mirror work
