This composition is about 5 100 words in the fourth grade of primary school. The title is diary of a trip to Africa. Everyone is welcome to contribute enthusiastically. Friday, October 27th, 65438/KLOC-Weather: I watched Animal World and The Lion King when I was a child, magnificent Yuan Ye in Africa, majestic mountains, rolling deserts, colorful and lush tropical rainforests, shocking sunrises and sunsets, deep starry sky, strange and beautiful wild animals, as if magnificent music came from the depths of the earth. Has been lingering in my mind, mysterious Africa is a dream in my heart, a dream I am eager to explore. Today, this dream will finally come true. After several hours of waiting, we boarded Qatar Airways flight QR 65438+QR 1889 at 0: 50 midnight and flew to Nairobi, Kenya via Doha.

Weather on Saturday, October 28th, 65438/kloc-0: After a flight of 12 hours, we arrived at Doha airport at 7: 00 a.m. local time (time difference is 5 hours). I thought Doha Airport was a large international airport several times larger than Shanghai Pudong Airport, but I didn't expect the waiting room to be so small and crowded. After waiting in the aisle for more than two hours, we boarded the flight to Nairobi.

After more than five hours' flight, we finally arrived at our destination-Nairobi. As soon as I got out of the airport, a gust of hot air came to my face. We look very different in sweaters here. On the way to the hotel, the guide gave us a brief introduction of Kenya. It turned out that she was a British colony and didn't become independent until 1963. Relatively poor and backward in African countries. Nairobi is named after the Nairobi River which flows through the city. In the local language, Nairobi means "cool water" and is a rare summer resort in East Africa. The city is covered with trees and flowers, and Nairobi has the reputation of "Greentown in the Sun" and "Flowers".

I looked at my watch when I arrived at the hotel. It was almost 7 pm at that time, close to Beijing time 12: 00. So we spent the last day of 2005.

65438+1Sunday, October 29th Weather: Sunny Today's destination is Lake Nakuru National Park in the Rift Valley of East Africa. Driving on the road, I saw black people dressed beautifully, as if Kenya was not that poor. I didn't know until I asked the tour guide that today is Sunday, which is the day when Kenyans go to church. I am very confused. Perhaps most of them only have such a new dress, and they are reluctant to wear it at ordinary times. They only wear them when they go to church, so as not to be looked down upon by people around them. Kenyans are quite vain.

Finally arrived at Lake Nakuru. Although the park is small, it is known as "bird watching paradise". There are about 450 kinds of birds in the park, the most famous of which is flamingo. There are about 2 million flamingos living here, accounting for one-third of the total number of flamingos in the world. As soon as I entered the park, I found a large pink light reflected from the blue lake, making Lake Nakuru look like an African bride with flushed cheeks. Suddenly, some of the red light retreated, some floated, and some even flew, hovering poetically in mid-air like a soothing red cloud. We shouted excitedly: flamingo!

In addition, there are many kinds of animals in the park, such as impala and black rhinoceros. A rock rabbit suddenly ran out, startled by our voice, and ran into the cave again. It's so cute.

Monday, 654381October 30th Weather: It's sunny today. We arrived at Ma Qian Mara National Animal Reserve and started our hunting trip. Of course, today we don't use shotguns, but cameras.

Masai Mara National Animal Sanctuary is located on the border between southwest Kenya and Tanzania, and is connected with Serengeti Animal Sanctuary in Tanzania. Founded in 196 1 year, with an area of 1800 square kilometers. There are many animals in the nature reserve, including about 95 species of mammals and 450 species of birds. This is one of the best wildlife reserves in the world. Many scenes of the famous TV program Animal World were shot here. Entering Masai Mara, the low hills are rolling, the vast grassland is endless, and the huge acacia and Boba trees are scattered among them, and the scenery is beautiful. On the Yuan Ye, we often see herds of zebras and bison, South African antelopes walking around, and African buffaloes wandering around; We appreciate the beauty of giraffes around us, the speed of cheetahs and jackals, the ferocity of lions preying on bison, the spectacle of African elephants crossing the road, and we also see the rare black rhinoceros. The tranquility and harmony of nature are well reflected here. According to the book, Masai Mara is one of the 50 places that people must visit in their lives. That's true.

Tuesday 65438+1October 3 1 Weather: It takes about five hours to drive from Masai Mara to Nairobi. Like China and Shanghai, Nairobi is an international metropolis with five-star hotels, expressway, transportation, internet and mobile phones. However, the Masai people living in Masai Mara are one of the most primitive tribes in the world (the other is in South America). In just five hours, I felt the huge gap between primitive and modern, and I was shocked: leaving Masai Mara, I saw yellow sand all over the sky, a desolate place, and this is the home of Masai people. Masai people are symbols of primitive tribes left over from the grasslands of East Africa. At first glance, the gender of Maasai people is unclear. The woman with a colored collar around her neck is a woman. Otherwise, it's all the same black skin, colorful kanga, holding the shuttle tag. In the Masai tribe, men are responsible for grazing and defending their homes. According to our guide, these Masai people are even afraid of them. I also went to a Masai home, which is the simplest home I have ever seen. The house is made of grass, cow dung and mud, so it tastes a bit special. It is about 1.2 meters high, and you need to bend over to enter. The room may be only four or five square meters, with a fire pit in the middle for barbecue. Besides, it is also a bed for sleeping. The so-called bed is just a piece of cowhide, which is all the possessions of the Masai people. Masai people's diet is also very distinctive: the staple food is beef and mutton, and the drinks are milk and cow blood. Besides, you don't eat vegetables and rice, and of course you don't eat any wild animals. Masai people are so isolated from the world that they are still primitive, or they are poor and backward. Is it because of their nature, or because of the totem they worship, that they can live for generations? I can't find the answer either.

Weather on Wednesday, February 1 Sunday: We visited the city of Nairobi on a sunny morning, then ended our trip to Kenya and boarded the plane from Nairobi to Johannesburg, the capital of South Africa. After more than five hours' flight, we arrived at the second stop of this trip-South Africa.

Weather on Thursday, February 2nd: Sunny Sun City is located at187km northwest of Johannesburg, the largest city in South Africa. It is a luxury entertainment area similar to Las Vegas in the African jungle built by South African billionaire Sol Korsner. Little people like us can only go to the six-star palace hotel full of rugged and psychedelic African customs, take a walk on the "bridge of time"-the earthquake bridge, and watch others paddle in the artificial sea and play golf among the blue sky and green grass.

In the evening, we live in Putuoliya. South Africa has three capitals, of which the judicial and legislative capitals are Brufontein and Cape Town respectively. Putuoliya is its administrative capital, more than 60 kilometers away from Joburg. I didn't expect the back garden of the presidential palace here to be open to tourists. Outside the city wall, there are even stalls selling souvenirs. Such undefended government facilities are rare in the world!

Weather on Friday, February 3rd: It's sunny today. We visited Joburg, which used to be a very developed city. This can be seen from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Toyota cars running all over the street. Looking out from the car, there are many European-style buildings on both sides of the street. Except for a few buildings in the city center, the rest are duplex houses on the first and second floors. Flowers of all colors are blooming outside the fence, reflecting the light-colored walls, making you almost forget that you are in Africa. Of course, there are still a large number of black people living in iron houses with no water or electricity of less than 10 square meter, which shows the gap between the rich and the poor in South Africa. During apartheid, blacks were not allowed to enter the center of Joburg. After the abolition of apartheid, a large number of blacks poured in, a large number of whites withdrew, and Joburg declined somewhat. A large number of buildings in the city center are vacant, and social security is chaotic. We dare not get off and walk in broad daylight.

Twenty or thirty kilometers from the center of Joburg, we visited the famous gold mine city and diamond city. God did not give South Africa abundant rain, but gave it a lot of gold and diamonds. The total output of gold and diamonds in South Africa ranks first in the world, and the diamonds handled by Debir Company account for 70% of the world. In the gold mining city and the diamond city, we learned about the whole process of diamonds from mining to finished products, which was very interesting.

Weather on Saturday, February 4th: Sunny flew to Cape Town, the southernmost tip of Africa. Cape Town has the reputation of small Europe and is the mother city of South Africa. 1652 On April 6th, a colonial officer of the Dutch East India Company arrived at Table Bay from the Netherlands after a voyage of 104. He set foot on the Cape Peninsula, raised the Dutch flag and a new city was born. Cape Town is the most important fruit export port in the world, and also the main fishing port and container port in South Africa.

Walking out of the airport, I not only took a deep breath when I saw the scenery in front of me, but the magnificent Table Mountain seemed to be a giant art exhibition in front of me. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, you would never have believed that there were such fantastic natural beauty in the world. There are always white clouds gathering on the table hill, like waterfalls and veils. This wonderful natural phenomenon is called "God laid a tablecloth on Table Mountain" by local people. In fact, to explain this natural phenomenon, we should start from Cape Town's special geographical location. Cape Town is located in the Cape Peninsula, bordering the Atlantic Ocean in the west and the Indian Ocean in the east. The climate of Cape Town is influenced by these two ocean currents, and two sea breezes meet, resulting in condensation and clouds due to different temperatures. Table Mountain is such a magical sight because the right shape appears in the right geographical position. The sea breeze here is very violent, and it is called devil wind. At night, I lay in a big bed in the hotel. Because of the windy weather, the wind whistling, the doors and windows shaking, as if an earthquake was coming, my parents stayed up all night, and even said that the Cape Pier was too enthusiastic to welcome us.

Sunday, February 5th Weather: Sunny Today is a classic trip to Cape Town.

At 9: 45 in the morning, we took a cruise to Cape Town Bay's Key Island Seal Island. When the ship docked near an island in the sea, I couldn't believe my eyes: there were large black floating objects on the sea around the island. At first, I thought they were floating plants. I took a closer look and found countless seal heads. Some seals are spectacular, some roll in the water, while others enjoy comfortable sunbathing in the sun. They are not big, but they always like to hold their heads high and curl up together. Although their movements from the water to the rocks are clumsy, they sound like pigs barking. In fact, they are all good hunters, observing all the way in the water and listening from all directions.

After leaving Seal Island, we came to Penguin Beach. We came to the beach along a wooden plank road. Here, beaches, rocks and coastal jungles are ideal nesting and habitats for cave animals. On the silver beach, groups of penguins, some basking in the sun, some surfing, and some squatting in caves in sand dunes to hatch their offspring. They are bulging with white bellies, flapping their two degenerated wings, swaying and naive, dragging long black feathers on their backs, just like gentlemen in tuxedos. The tour guide told us that penguins are also a model of "monogamy". They are paired and inseparable for life.

After bidding farewell to penguins, we headed for the Cape of Good Hope, located at the southernmost tip of Cape Town Peninsula, which is a nature reserve that preserved the original ecology 500 years ago. Standing on the lighthouse in the corner, looking out, in the distance is the intersection of the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean. Walking along the seaside at the foot of the mountain, you will come across a sign standing at the foot of the cliff, which reads "CAPEOFGOODHOPE" and its latitude and longitude coordinates (34 degrees 2 1 26 seconds south latitude, 0/8 degrees 28 minutes 26 seconds east longitude) in English and South African respectively. On the vast and boundless beach, the sea rolled up silvery white waves and ran to the coast like an avalanche, just like a thousand troops rushing forward; The waves hit the cliff, and the foam splashed, making a loud noise like the sky were to fall. As the sun sets, the red sun shines its last light in the clouds, reflecting half the sky. The clouds and water set each other off, gorgeous and gorgeous, just like the last cadenza of a symphony. This poetic scene is shocking.

Weather on Monday, February 6th: It's foggy on the sunny desk most of the time. For safety reasons, about 70% tourists at Cape Pier can't climb mountains. The sunshine is strong today, and the fog on Table Mountain has receded. Fortunately, we took a cable car for mountaineering, which can take 65 people and move up 360 degrees. However, in 4 minutes, we waited for Table Mountain.

Table Mountain is located at the northern end of the mountain range between Cape Wharf and Cape of Good Hope, with an altitude of1067m, which is 3. 2 kilometers. To the east of the mountain is Devil Peak, and to the west are Lion Head Mountain and Signal Peak. The top of the mountain is as flat as a plain. After the rock has been eroded by wind and rain, there are many gullies that extend down the cliff, and the deepest one is called a canyon.

Seen from Table Mountain, Table Mountain is surrounded by vast oceans on three sides, with the sunny Indian Ocean in the east and the choppy Atlantic Ocean in the west. Cape Town is like a pearl scattered on the green plain, with Lion Mountain and Signal Mountain beside Table Mountain at its feet. It really feels like "all other mountains look short under the sky." . Looking around, you can vaguely see the Cape of Good Hope at the southernmost tip of Africa and Robben Island where Mandela 18 is imprisoned. No wonder some people say that going to South Africa without going to Cape Town is equivalent to never going to South Africa; If you don't go to Table Mountain in Cape Town, you haven't been to Cape Town.

After leaving Table Mountain, we came to the wine manor. There are many small and large wine towns in South Africa, most of which are family-run. Many wineries are open to tourists. Visitors can take food to the winery for a picnic, visit the wine cellar, and taste and buy all kinds of red wine and white wine brewed by the winery. South Africa is the seventh largest wine exporter in the world. 80% of the wine is produced in West Cape Province. Where we come from, CONSTANTIA is the most popular family for tourists here. People enjoy music, taste red wine and delicious food here, or lie on a blanket and look at the quiet mountains and vineyards around the wine country, which is very leisurely.

Tuesday, February 7th Weather: Sunny Today we came to the ostrich breeding base in South Africa.

Ostrich is the largest bird in the world, with distinctive facial features: large eyes, one eyeball weighing 60 grams, and long eyelashes, which can prevent sandstorms; Its ears grow at the back, and it has four empty noses, two big and two small. Its neck is very long and can rotate 360 degrees; It only has two toes, one big and one small, unlike Australian ostriches, which have three toes. It walks with its big toes, which is a bit like ballet. It is elegant. When it meets the enemy, it also attacks with its big toe. It is said that you can cut the stomach of a lion with great strength.

Although ostriches are fierce, this fierce animal is sometimes pitiful. They like to bury their heads in the sand and escape from the outside world, thinking that in this way, the enemy can't see themselves, which is a bit like stealing a clock. When catching an ostrich, as long as you blindfold it, it will obey you.

Ostrich is full of treasures, and its skin is very tough, second only to crocodile skin, which is a good raw material for making high-grade leather goods. In the past, wool was used as a headdress by European ladies. Meat is low in cholesterol and tastes like beef. Its eggs are also a popular food.

After leaving the ostrich garden, we also went to the Kirstenbers National Botanical Garden on the east slope of Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa. Covering an area of 528 hectares, the cultivation area is only 36 hectares. It has collected and cultivated 4000 local plants in the Cape Peninsula. Unfortunately, time is pressing, and we only stayed here for more than two hours.

Wednesday, February 8th Weather: Sunny Farewell to Beautiful South Africa. After Qatar Airways 10 flight for more than hours, we arrived in Doha, the capital of Qatar. After settling down, it was already 0: 00 a.m. at 65438+. We didn't take a shower, so we quickly got into bed.

Weather on Thursday, February 9th: Sunny We stayed in Qatar for a day because of the backup. Qatar's land area is only 1 1.400 square kilometers, which is only three times the size of Hangzhou and has a population of only 800,000. Because most of its areas are deserts, the city of Doha is actually very small, which can't compare with Hangzhou. Qatar is a country in the Middle East, rich in oil and gas, and very rich in 2006.

As a desert city on the Arabian Gulf, there are not many high-rise buildings in Doha, and only a few buildings are concentrated together, which is very prominent. The most striking thing is Sheraton Hotel, which has become a landmark building in Qatar's promotional film. But what is even more amazing is the new town in the west of Doha. This vast land was all reclaimed from the sea. As the host city of the 2006 Asian Games, Doha will build dozens of luxury hotels here!

During the trip, we visited the local mosque, camel market, traditional market, vegetable market, Al Jazeera, rider club and seaport. Adults are very interested in Al Jazeera. Bin Laden, the protagonist of the 9 1 1 incident, often gives speeches here.

February Friday 10 Weather: Say goodbye to Doha in sunny weather, and we will return to Hangzhou at 5 pm. I dreamed of Hangzhou's food, air and home several times and finally came back. Hangzhou is really good!
