Cows and Camels and Pigs, oh my
i've been seeing a lot of camels lately. yesterday there was one that i walked by, right outside the Y. 4 littles kids on it's back. and it had bangles/bells on it's knees that made noises as it walked along the street. waterbuffalo pulling carts. lots and LOTS of cows everywhere. but they're not your normal cows, they have humps and are more boney. they live in the middle of the city. and at night when you go out they fill the streets. i mean, when you walk, they FILL the sidestreets. you're just shocked to see the city come alive with farm animals. i'm not really sure where they go during the day. hiding in the alleys i guess. they're so much bigger than me, at first it was kinda scary to weave your way through a herd of cows. especially after watching the running of the bulls on tv from spain this summer. lol. also, sometimes you see a pig roaming the streets. i still have no idea who actually owns these creatures and how they find them when they are running around loose everywhere. carla and myself both want to ride an elephant sometimes. but those seem to be rare. i think when we go to southern india we might see some though. :o)
