A Camel Named Morgan

There once was a camel named Morgan.  He was hired to give joy rides to 97 orphans and all their caretakers one Thursday afternoon.

Little did Morgan know that he would have to cart around two Mzungus first while his buddy rested on the grass.  All that to say, little did the Mzungus know they were going to be asked to ride a camel or one of them probably wouldn't have worn a skirt.

Morgan needed some encouragement to get started.  He needed it because going from lying on the ground with knees tucked under to standing tall with two people sitting on and not helping at all takes a lot of work.  And the two people felt like they were going to be pitched off at any moment as Morgan got to his feet.  First his back legs went straight up, and it seemed the people would tumble head-over-heels.  The skirt-wearer was not amused.  Then his front legs caught up and all was well.

Even with all that hard work, Morgan kept on smiling.

His friend, the Professor, liked to bellow at anyone who would listen.

But Morgan preferred to kneel back down and take advantage of the nice grass.  After all, he had 97 kids to go!
