Breakfast on the Nile<br />

By Gordon Longmead<br />

Imagine the sun rising over the calm reflections on<br />

the river, the fishing boats are already out, and even<br />

their movement fails to disturb the tranquil waters.<br />

In the reeds other birds are watching as we begin<br />

the breakfast feast, they are watching for unwary<br />

insects that may fly past.<br />

The approaching sunrise perculates through the<br />

morning river mist giving the world a purple hue.<br />

The damselflies still hang like a ball in the air, the<br />

dark shadow of a bird dives to the water and skims<br />

across the surface snatching away the insects.<br />

So the sun rises above the hidden horizon behind<br />

this place and another day of safari begins. After a<br />

short visit to Murchison we leave and travel south to<br />

the Ziwa Rhino Sanctury.<br />
