一次艰苦的旅行

我的妹妹很喜欢旅行。自从毕业以来，她就下定决心要组织一次去一座古庙的旅行。因为交通费用昂贵，她决定骑自行车去，毫不担心其中的不利情况。顽固一直都是她的缺点，一旦她下定决心要做的事，就没有人能说服她改变主意。最后，我们像往常一样让步，尽管我们更喜欢乘火车去。我们准备好了所有东西，包括时间表、可靠的天气预报，还有保险，就开始了旅程。

我们的旅程沿着一条从高海拔处流下来的河流。但我们的步伐很慢，因为这条河流急转弯很多。当流经深深的峡谷时，湍急的河水似乎都要沸腾起来。正如我在旅行日志里记录的那样，这真是一次艰苦的旅行。但是我們也欣赏到了美丽的景色。一天晚上，我把头枕在一包羊毛衣服上，躺在星空下，当山洞前的火焰在午夜熄灭时，我发现夜空是如此美丽！
