My first camel ride

It took me three visits to Lanzarote before I got on a camel. In fact, it was my daughter that really wanted to ride on one, having seen them on our previous holiday and being, in our opinion, too young then.

So this time we returned to the camels in Timanfaya and were surprised to see so many of them there. The reason was obvious: a number of coach tours were going on the same day, so extra camels had been laid on.

We headed to an area away from the buses and were duly assigned to our camels. The price was 12EUR per camel, with each camel able to take two people.

The trip up the side of the mountain and back down again took a little over 15 minutes. There are fairly new facilities built under the lava with toilets, a bar and a gift shop.

We thoroughly enjoyed the ride, and I was also interested to read in a local publication (pp.32-33) that the camels are not only well looked after, but that their working hours are also strictly limited.

Feedburner done

The first step is complete: all RSS feeds have been re-routed to Feedburner!  So now all of our blogs can be tracked better and can be delivered by e-mail.  They should be more compatible with differend RSS readers, and we are able to place AdSense advertisements into the feeds.

One thing about Feedburner bothered me – I cannot edit more than one feed at a time, eg. to compare settings.  The system gets confused and always shows me the last feed that I clicked on.

If you haven’t done so already, you might like to sign up for the Cymeradwyo.net feed.
