I assume I shouldn't label this as OC.

The view from the top of those dunes. I went there in the beginning of this year, would absolutely recommend it!

Thanks, it works as a direct link on Boost, so I didn't notice. Any hints on how best to share direct image links (also outside of imgur) would be appreciated.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago

The way I share is using imgchest or find random images on duckduckgo and just copy the image address and link them.

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

[–] Bumblefumble@lemm.ee 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

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?

[–] nailbar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

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.
