I pretty much took it easy today, and just strolled around the Taj Ganj neighborhood to shoot a few photos. The day before, from the rooftop of the Hotel Kamal, I saw a guy walking a couple of camels and hoped I’d get a photo of them before I left Agra. Well today, I saw them again in the distance, when I was down by the West Gate of the Taj Mahal, but they were walking away and I just couldn’t muster up the energy to try to catch them. Then, a while later back at the hotel, I saw the camels pass by as I was walking out of the driveway. Once again, I was behind them, and had to power walk super fast to catch up and shoot a couple of video clips. The sad thing was, the camels were pretty much skin and bones, like many domesticated animals in India.
