At five o'clock in the morning, I got up and boarded the deck, where there were few tourists, and I quietly leaned back on my recliner, basking in the morning light of the Nile, calmly admiring and photographing the sunrise over the Nile.
The Nile river in the early morning is even more beautiful. The morning sun spreads over the water, coating the Nile with a golden-red glow. The river sparkles, and the heavens and the earth are red. In this eternal flow, you can feel the infinite rhythm of the Nile scenery, you can also feel the vigorous seasonal movement of the surrounding life, and you can feel the long-standing splendid civilization of ancient Egypt. ㇏
Early morning is the most tranquil moment of the Nile, flowing silently as if time and water had stood still. Birdsong in the distant reeds gently passes through the almost frozen air to your ears as if singing the prelude to life for a new day. Occasionally, a few water birds gracefully fly past your eyes, waking you up from your dreams.
Through the thin morning fog in front of you, you see the river microwave undulating, the trees are dyed, the village is lightly smoked, and the temple is ancient and fluttering, as if you are also in a fairyland. Unconsciously, the sky glowed a faint red light, and then the sun rose. The golden sunlight instantly spread across the earth, and the Nile began to show its beauty.
At this moment, the clouds of the Nile River are steaming, and the golden sunlight is even more colorful and charming. Perhaps a sailboat suddenly breaks the intoxicating tranquility, but it brings infinite vitality to the Nile, adds a bit of confusion to the elegant morning light, and also brings endless reverie to the tourists on the cruise ship.
In elementary school, our teacher taught us an Egyptian song called "Songs on the Banks of the Nile." Now I remember only two lyrics: "The sun climbs up the high hill, and the nile water glows with gold." Since then, I have had a vision and yearning for the beautiful scenery of the world's longest river.
Before I personally visited the Nile River, I thought that the water of the Nile River was rushing like the Yangtze River and roaring like the Yellow River, but I did not expect that the river was so calm as a mirror and not alarming.
It's not so much a flowing river as it is a calm lake. The lake and mountains are beautiful, and the reflection is bright and clear. The thousand-year-old temple is solemn and ancient servants, the towering minaret stands tall, the shore is lush and prosperous, and the coconut trees are towering to the blue sky.
In the distance, golden sand dunes stretched out to the sky, and there was not a trace of cloud in the clear blue sky. The sun shines on the earth, and everything is full of vitality; Birds can be seen everywhere on the shoals nearby, cattle, sheep and horses on the shore are leisurely foraging, and reeds sway gently in the wind.
Like a leaf boat floating quietly on the shore, the sailboat gently floats over the water in a shallow singing and low chant; There are fishermen fishing in the river, there are children playing in the water, this is a beautiful and peaceful picture, even intoxicating and psychedelic and pleasant.
The cruise ship restarted, the roar of the motor woke me up from the psychedelic dream, and the journey of the new day was about to begin, and my heart was full of expectation.
