Camels, Camels Everywhere

One of my friends loves camels so whenever we go to the museum and we see a camel that we have not seen before we take a picture and text her it and believe me there are a lot, so many! We found them all. And in fact we have found so many I’m pretty sure that it’s the most used animal in the museum!

I like the one from Egyptian hieroglyphics the mostest. I like it because because I like Egyptian hieroglyphics. It is made out of yarn. This is not the only one. There are a bunch of them. This is the one with the camels in it. There are a lot of crocodiles in all of them. They must come across a lot of crocodiles. Probably because of the Nile.
