I assume I shouldn't label this as OC.

Is it hard work to walk on that kind of sand?

My calves have never hurt more in my life, it was insanely hard to climb the dune. But we rode dromedaries out there, not that it's that far.

what's the difference between dromedaries and camels?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (2 children)

Iirc a camel has two humps and a dromedar has one, but that's something I learned, like, 30 years ago, so I might be wrong.

Edit: so a dromedary is a one humped camel. A bactrian camel has two humps.
