Sea Turtle recalled that magical picture: soft morning light shone through the surface into the clear azure ocean. The beams were like sacred light traveling through jewel-studded stained-glass windows and scattered onto the floor of a gothic cathedral. And between the shafts of light were hundreds, thousands...no, tens of thousands jellyfish! Milky, translucent and elegant. It was just like an Impressionist Degas ballerina pastel drawing.
海龜想起那個既美麗又不可思議的畫面：柔和的晨光從水面折射進蔚藍澄澈的海洋，一條條光柱就像歌德式教堂裡透過彩色玻璃窗散滿一地的聖光，穿插在無數條光柱之中乃成千上萬的水母，優雅的、半透明的、奶白色的，像是一幅印象派畫家Edgar Degas筆下的芭蕾舞粉彩畫。
