Fourth Journey Day 163: Journey in Granite Silence



Today felt very special. I began my morning with a tranquil felucca ride on the Nile, basking in the warmth of the sun and the gentle rustle of the wind. The water carried me past the city's historic skyline, revealing snippets of ancient grandeur at every turn. It was a calming experience, a moment to simply breathe and be inspired by my surroundings.

After the ride, I spent the afternoon wandering the nearby streets and observing daily life. The contrast between the centuries-old architecture and the vibrant hustle and bustle of the present offered much to sketch in my notebook. There was a deep serenity in the air, balanced by the vibrancy of the locals going about their daily routines.

I am reminded once again how travel broadens my perspective and nurtures my creativity.
