"Wauuuhhuuu, there's something I've got to say. I would have never thought that camel riding can be that exhausting. Especially with that job I had: barking at kangaroos, wild horses, and wild camels to chase them away. But honestly: If mummy and daddy had told me from the very beginning that they wouldn't let me nibble the delicious, sun-ripened cattle and camel carcasses, I probably wouldn't have joined them. Who would then have taken care of them, though? Who would have protected them from the wild camel bulls and the poisonous snakes? Who would have saved my dear Tanja from dying a horrible death of thirst? And who would have shown Denis the way?
No false modesty: It was a brave decision to take part in this adventure. And thinking about it, it wasn't all that bad to be heading the caravan on the back of my friend Hardie, and being able to observe everything from up there. As scout and great camel rider, I was definitely the most important member of the team. I suppose without me Denis and Tanja would have never survived this expedition."
Unfortunately, Tanja and Denis have decided not to take me along on their TRANS-EAST-EXPEDITION. They think I wouldn’t survive this trip because of all the stray dogs, they say, but mainly because of the horrible and dangerous traffic all over. What do they know! Even at my age, I can still put to flight any car – no kidding! But thinking about it, I have a much riskier and extremely important job at home: I am the bodyguard of Brigitte and Carsten, Denis’ parents, and, furthermore, I am the watchie for Denis’ and Tanja’s house while they’re on tour.
