This weekend, I slept in a tent in a huge clearing. It had rained in the morning but the night sky was perfectly clear with a moon which had just started waning. We took the top off the tent and slept staring at the stars. Walking around in natural moonlight with no other sources of light, in the forest, is an out-of-this-world experience. You come to realize how much external sources of light have spoiled you when all you needed were your eyes.

oh man.
And the stars you see - may or may not exist.
On a tiring evening, a friend fondly recounted her experience on the Nile at night. The sky and its reflection. I can only imagine.
Where were you camping by the way? And did you write this then, or later?
The last bit I mean
