On its long way to the Mediterranean, the Nile is pushed through a narrow opening in the rocks, forming the spectacular Murchison waterfalls.
As soon as we got out of the car, we heard the continuous thunder of water. We hurried towards the source of the sound, and ended up at the banks of the river Nile. At first we saw water rushing down, and after a few more steps forward, we could see the entire spectacle of Murchison Falls. The speeding water, dashing and whirling, causing foam of water being hurled into the air, inevitably sped towards the lowest point, which was a narrow opening in the rocks to the left of us. While the river was perhaps fifty metres wide just before, the narrow opening managed to almost block the enormous water mass. Almost. Because the water eventually had no choice than to go downwards, and as it did so, the enormous pressure of the water just upstream caused it to violently fall down just after the opening.
