I stayed for 3 days and it snowed the first night. It was ghastly. No one shoveled and it was frozen in clumps that made walking difficult if not impossible. The Dutch woman that managed the guest house I stayed in said it was the first time they had had measurable snow accumulation in years. Needless to say there were no super-imposed camels.

And ... there's actually a herd of camels. They're all off camera buying hash brownies. Sure, that's it. flopster63: That was my initial thought.
