Camel Rides

So last week I volunteered at the zoo for the camel rides.  I really enjoyed the whole experience...even if most people would hate that my only job was to scoop camel poo.  I actually enjoyed figuring out the rake for the scooping...the prongs were narrow enough to catch the poo, yet wide enough to let the gravel fall through.


AND I learned a lot that I didnt know about camels from talking to the owner/operator.  He was really happy to have me volunteer and told me to tell my supervisor that I did a great job and he wants me to come back to volunteer at the camel rides again.


I then went to the zoo saturday and rode on the camels so that way I could experience the whole thing!
