BOAC

Old travelers may remember that the original name of the UK's flag air carrier was British Overseas Airways Corporation, or BOAC. Old experienced travelers may recall the true meaning of the acronym, Better On A Camel. Our limited experience with camels at Giza, Egypt, and the Thar Desert in northwest India was not particularly pleasant. Circus Flora had an act featuring four of them trotting around the ring with remarkable good behavior. Rides came later, as we will see tomorrow.
