We arrived at the Thar Desert late in the day, when the last set of tourists were heading off into the distance.

Mostly the camel drivers were shutting down for the day…
and heading off into the wild blue yonder…
Several of the camel drivers and their camels posed for us.
The camels were such posers!Here’s another. Those camels are real hams!
As the sun set the crowds gathered.
The end of the day.The sun sets with the camels still trying to get in the picture. Time to go home – check out this camel driver’s face – it’s an expression of pure glee!
