Kiama is renowned for its blowhole, just a few metres from the lighthouse, and when it's going off, it really is quite spectacular. However it's also often in quiet mode, much to the disappointment of visitors, but just a few kilometres south, the Little Blowhole is a smaller but more reliable performer. Here is the little version, performing very well just a couple of days ago with jets of water rising up to 10 metres above the rock platform, sometimes on successive waves, but on average producing a powerful jet about every third wave.
in Jaisalmer, my amorous hotel receptionist invited me to visit his family in the desert for free rather than take the popular, slightly expensive camel-trekking tours. I didn't agree until I found another woman to join.
These were Amir's friends who rocked up to join for tea as soon as we arrived.
Morning in the desert with Amir and the other tourist I convinced to come with us.

Camping in the Thar desert in Rajasthan with the desert people. In the winter they move into permanent structures but in the summer months they bring their goats and cows into the desert and camp. The men work with their camels taking tourists on safaris. Even though this is a hard life by western standards, this is where they are happiest, living under the stars - which are amazing here. Before partition they would have roamed through the desert in both Rajasthan and Sind Province (now in Pakistan).
