Blue brightness and peacefulness
(By Lui Li, Executive
Director of SSEA, Head of Expedition China team)
| 10 Aug. 2000
Weather: sunshine. In the morning, facing the colorful sunrise, we pushed our boats into the river again. The river was very calm, along the riversides were green grasslands decorated with wildflowers, sheep and yaks. A pretty little Tibetan girl gazed at us curiously. Behind her figure, on the slopes, the cooking smoke rising from the houses of Tibetan village. What a beautiful scene!

We just thronged a narrow section of the river, suddenly
a broad view appeared. We have heard that there is a Zharon Water -
Electronic Station in this area, but could not find it on any map.
Here it is!
The color of the river became so blue and bright, one felt the blue brightness penetrated into one's hearts. The Golden sunlight reflected on the water surface, Floating on the river, enjoying the breeze and its absolute peacefulness. Captain Michael PConnelly handled the boat so nicely to fit into this heavenly scene. I almost forgot this was an adventure journey. |
