I think I'm going to try this trip in September or October, if I can find a reasonably priced flight. It should provide a nice contrast to the glacier, and I've been wanting to go on a camel caravan for a while. This trip doesn't quite involve a caravan, but there are camels.
On a different note, there was a crazyman on the train today. He looked like a scraggly, unkempt Norwegian in his 40s, possibly homeless. I didn't notice him until the train was pulling up to my stop. He was by the door, waiting for it to open, and holding a magazine curved in front of his face as if he were hiding from someone. He couldn't see anything, and as soon as the doors opened, he ducked out and headed to the right, instantly running into a woman. He's still holding the magazine in front of his face, so he didn't know which way to move to get out of her way, and she seemed confused. He reached out and felt where she was and where there were openings, and then moved around her.
He kept the magazine up and could probably see where his feet were, because he found his way to the exit ramp. He still couldn't see in front of him, though, and so ran into some guy there. The guy was kind of pissed, and yelled at him. He kept going, though, and last I saw of him, he had run into the back of a staircase and was feeling his way around it. Despite all that, he made good time getting out of the station.
