It was a scorching day in the Kalahari Desert. Miko the Meerkat peeked out of his burrow, looking for adventure. Lou the Lizard was basking on a nearby rock, enjoying the sun. The sand dunes rolled endlessly, and a distant mirage shimmered. 'Hey Lou, what are you up to?' Miko asked. 'Just soaking up the sun, Miko,' Lou replied. 'Want to explore the desert with me?' Miko asked excitedly. Lou nodded, ready for an adventure.
