Egypt? No, New Jersey. While driving to my son’s dive meet one morning on the hectic and well-traveled Jersey Turnpike, I nonchalantly glanced to my right and saw this incredible beast being transported in a trailer, its woolly locks blowing in the wind. The creature and I made eye contact and my heart ached to think it might be heading for a circus or some other place far the opposite of greener pastures. Snapping this photo through my car window I said a little prayer that the camel was en route to a lovely farm somewhere far from here, where it would recover from its journey in a shaded field.

Not sure what is it; only see that kind of beasts in the first Star War (with Hank Solo). Seem warriors riding on them; thought it was an animated creature, not the real one.

Good morning from Connecticut Li! The beast is a camel very uncommon to our area. Great visual description of warriors riding! though I have never seen Star Wars . Have nice day.

The camel is cool, and the jumping into the lake, but wow, that dive photo. Worth all those meets, I’m sure.

And I applaud YOU as swim meets much more lengthy than dive although the dive meets often involve both Sat and Sunday (1 meter board one day, 3 meter second). Both my boys swim in the summer but at our pool’s local meets which are much less chaos and enjoyable than the competitive venues. A great sport!
