English Translation (Freely translated by the author) 

"You are talking rubbish! How can there be tunas in the desert?" Jamie wanted to know as he and Sebastiaan bumped along on the camel's back. 

"You don't know anything!" Sebastiaan snorted

"I know more than you and if I know nothing, you know less than nothing," Jamie retorted. 

Sebastiaan didn't answer. He just stared at the horizon. 

"Why is the camel wearing sunglasses?" Jamie wanted to know. 

"Aha!" Sebastiaan shouted triumphantly. "I knew you know nothing!" 

Jamie could feel his blood beginning to heat up. The cat was impossible. Yet he had to know. "What is going on?" he asked. "Where are Alie and Simonei?"
