Memories from Lanzarote: Camel Safari

Up in the heights of the Timafaya National Park it can get a bit wild. Since Lanzarote gets on average only 18 days of rain compared with our 184 in NW England it’s also very barren and dry. One of the few animals that can survive is the dromedary and for some time, people have been making use of that. Here we see one of the very regular tourist ‘camel safari’ tours that captivate the visitors. You can sit in relative comfort, two at a time for about 30 minutes, up and down (sic) on these trails gazing at the black ashen slopes. ~ Not for me, much too slow and not the best way to photograph the scenery I thought, but I managed to get some shots of other folk enjoying themselves. You too, enjoy the spectacle and marvelous alien scenery here.

As usual best view full screen on black.
