"CONTEST ALERT!!! || "3 DAYS IN A DESERT"

Hello everyone!👋 It's my pleasure to engage in this adventurous contest hosted by @abdullahw2

MY IMAGINATION ABOUT VISITING THE DESERT

source

First of all I will like to explain what a desert is. A desert is a place or a large portion of land that has little or no capacity to retain soil nutrients for plants to survive. It is a dry land where you hardly find water. It can be called a barren land because there are no vegetation or trees there. A desert is usually dry and the entire land is covered with sand and rocks. I know that not all animals can survive in a desert so animals that can survive there are scorpions, snakes, camels, etc.

I have imagined visiting a desert before and it was after I watched an American movie titled "The Mummy". It is a popular movie that portrays action, adventure and horror scenes.
Growing up I use to love playing with sand and building sand castles. I love the texture of sandy soil. Whenever I visited the stream when I was younger, after staying in water for a while, I will go to where we have sandy soil and rub the sand all over my body so that I will feel hot and then run back into the water and swim. The only challenge is that there is no stream in the desert for me to jump inside and swim after rubbing myself with the desert sand. I imagine walking on the sand and dipping my feets inside the sand, it feels amazing in my head.😍

During the three days, What essential items would you bring with you to survive in the desert, and why?

When we talk about essential items we refer to items that are important for a particular journey. Knowing that there is no water in the desert I will carry my big water bottle, I will have my meals packed in like three to five plates for each day (Yes, I don't joke with food!😋), that will make like fifteen plates maximum for the three days.😎. I will carry a dagger, my foldable tent for when the night comes, my lamp and few clothes. I imagine how my bag will look like🙄.

What type of foods and drinks would you like to take during your 3 days Trip in a desert? Also tell us reasons.

I think that we require energy to walk on a sandy soil so I will take more water and few energy drinks. For food, I will go with food that contains carbohydrate as they are energy giving foods, for example yam, fruits, baked bread and garri. If I carry cooked food it will definitely spoil the next day because there is no place to warm or refrigerate the food in the desert so it is better to carry unprepared meals and cooked meals for only the first day.

If you were asked to take one of your Steemian friend with you for your three-day desert stay, who would you take and why?

Wow! this is a nice question. So far I have made a lot of friends on steemit but my steemian friend that I can trust to go with me to the desert and can fight for me is @iddy He is such a great friend here on steemit and physically. But I won't go with him alone o, his wife @blessedbee must also come with us. They are more like family to me.

Thanks for reading my post💕
