Camel Capers
Michael I had such a good laugh reading your blog. Zoe was NOT impressed and sought refuge at the other end of the house!! The descriptions of the camel ride were hilarious. I'm just wondering where the photo is of the bride you were offered! You certainly are having an experience of a life time. Safe travelling during your last week in India!

crazy adventure!

Best blog entry I've read!
Sup Bro, that was one of the funniest things I've read in a long time. I was at a friends house when I read it and got a lot of very strange looks as I was constantly cracking up and bursting into laughter! I'm looking forward to when you start your career as a travel writer!!!

Thanks for a good laugh
I'm sure you've been told a few times already, but this is one of the funniest things I've read in long, long time! I was actually laughing OUT LOUD and at one point had a right laughing fit that made me cry and all! Hope you're still having a wonderful time, smart guy for putting off the rat race for as long as possible, keep it up! All the best Maria
