Chapter 11: Seven Hours, Two Thousand Words...
The undulating slopes of the mountains are lush with trees of varying heights and shades, and the blue sky is particularly pure against the black asphalt pavement.
As the car speeds on the highway, the surrounding scenery outside the window is like an infinitely long scroll, giving people a sense of beauty, which makes Yang Zi and them all admire.
After renting two Toyota SUVs, the group spent the night at the resort near Mahindi and set out to drive to Cabarega Falls, which is not far from here.
One of the purposes of their trip was to shoot footage along the way, and then down the Nile River in Victoria, past Cabarega Falls, there will be a place called Chopper.
This is a very famous fishing river, and the local government has even set up dozens of fishing spots here for tourists to fish and have fun.
If you are lucky, the giant Nile perch that Yang Zi has been chasing also has a certain chance of being caught here.
After analyzing the situation and the distribution of the route, after some discussion, we did not go directly to Lake Albert as originally planned, but planned to follow the Victorian Nile, all the way down to the delta estuary where it joins Lake Albert.
On this arranged route, they can play, fish, record materials, or fulfill Tan Ziqing's wish to hunt in the forest.
The itinerary of killing multiple birds with one stone, after Yang Zigang put it forward, was unanimously recognized by everyone.
………………
Some people once praised Cabarega as the last pure land on earth, and this statement is not unfounded.
Whether it's the natural environment or the wildlife resources, it's one of the best in the world, and it's no wonder that the tourism industry has grown rapidly in recent years.
After seeing such a gratifying economic effect, the local government gradually paid attention to the protection of the environment.
They have set up a number of protected areas here, and have even negotiated with the governments of neighboring countries to establish several large national forest parks in large areas near Lake Albert.
A few years after the implementation of this move, the people and the local environment in these places began to enter a relatively virtuous circle, and the two can not only complement each other, but also maintain this state for a long time, which can be said to complement each other.
"Ah Ling, you slow down, let me take a few more pictures of animals!
Oh my God, it's amazing here, there are so many ferocious beasts everywhere, it's like we're in a zoo, it's the kind of one without a cage. ”
Carrying a camera, Ah Feng kept taking pictures of a group of lions that appeared on the side of the road.
"Why don't you stop the car and get up close and personal with them?"
Although he was a little unhappy with his companion's chatter, Ah Ling still slowed down the car, but his mouth was not so polite, and he complained about the other party with a bad taste, which attracted Ah Feng's two hygienic eyes.
Starting from Masindi, we encountered many unforgettable experiences along the way, and this is just one of them.
Local children are smiling innocently, lions are staring at you in the grass, leopards are suddenly bursting out, and bulls are dying of old age.
These precious and rare scenes, engraved in everyone's minds, have been deeply left in their hearts.
Moving forward like this, as everyone got closer and closer to Cabarega Waterfall, more than ten miles away, Yang Zi and they heard the huge roar of the waterfall.
When they saw the mist rising in the distance, their hearts instantly stirred.
I saw the bed of the Nile River in Victoria, where it suddenly fell like a cliff for dozens of meters, forming a huge river valley.
The river water pours straight down, like a silver refining flying, soaring into the air, the water splashes in all directions, stirring up layers of mist, the sound is like thunder, and its sound can be heard far away more than ten miles away.
At the bottom of the river valley, because of the impact of the water flow, a deep pool has been formed, the waves in the pool are boiling, and the water droplets float, forming a peculiar landscape.
Between the churning mist, the sunlight is refracted to form a beautiful rainbow, which makes everyone feast their eyes.
"Brother Yang, spectacular, right?
Take a good look, this waterfall is very famous in Africa, and many people come here specifically to see this attraction.
Let's rest here for a while, then cross the river at the front ferry, and walk a short distance to Chopper.
When you get there, you go and arrange the fishing, and I'll have to meet with the safari organization here and ask about the preparations and work. ”
After getting out of the car, everyone watched the scenery in twos and threes, and Tan Ziqing discussed the rest of the journey and arrangements with Yang Zi.
Of course, more attention was paid to the hunting matters.
"Look at you, you're in a hurry, you can't wait to go hunting?
When you get to Chopper, you can call Brother De to join you! If you don't know anyone else, be careful not to be kidnapped by cannibals. ”
Looking at Tan Ziqing's expectant appearance, Yang Zi's reply was a little evil.
"Hehe! Such an exciting thing, you can calm down, Ah Ling and Ah Feng are the same as me, they can't wait!
Don't worry, the safari program here is very mature, and there won't be any moths. ”
Tan Ziqing was a little puzzled by Yang Zi's thoughts, and the unequal strength of the two sides made him a little strange why the other party was so uninterested in hunting.
However, Yang Zi doesn't say these things, I'm afraid that others will not know if they want to break their heads.
After a few hours at Cabarega Falls, it was past noon, so everyone had a quick snack before heading back to the car and heading down the Victoria Nile towards the ferry port downstream.
This place is not far from the ferry in Tan Ziqing's mouth.
A small mechanical boat, with a low stone boarding port, when Yang Zi and a few people drove up, the entire ferry shook a few times, which made people feel very frightened.
But fortunately, although the process was a bit exciting, everyone still arrived on the other side without danger.
Next, they only need to drive a little further to reach their destination, the fishing spot of Chopper.
"Brother Yang, look, there are a lot of baboons in the trees over there! You help me hold my meow, I have to take a few pictures of them." ”
After crossing the ferry, when he was about to set off, Qiaoqiao suddenly made an unexpected discovery.
"You, just a few monkeys, what's there to see!"
Shaking his head, Yang Zi meowed while also looking at the trees on the opposite bank.
Since the last time he fought with a monkey in Khao Wan Mountain, Thailand, Yang Zi has not had a good impression of these too active creatures.
"Hee-hee, these baboons aren't monkeys, make no mistake!
You see, how cute they are, and they can unwrap food!
Hey, who fed the chips? How are they exactly the same as the ones in my bag............
Oh, where's my snack bag!!"
Ignoring Yang Zi's ignorance, Qiaoqiao continued to take pictures, but as she patted, she suddenly found that something was wrong, how could the snacks in the hands of the group of baboons be so similar to the ones she brought!
She hurriedly looked into the car, and then there was a sad cry......
"Oh! on your cute baboon! Haha! Looks like you have similar hobbies! You both love snacks so much............
It was rare to see Qiaoqiao's embarrassment, Yang Zi pointed to the tree and laughed loudly, the bag was full of snacks, and it was not a pity to lose it, so he didn't seem to be in a hurry.
"Ahh..................h
Brother Yang Zi, you still laugh ......"
"Haha! What can I do if we don't laugh, they are still on the other side of the river, can we swim to the other side and grab them back!
Alright, don't be angry, let's buy some more when it's time for Chopper. ”
"I hate monkeys............"
