Esmeralda-
You could be right (about use of the word 'special')!
To me the experience was powerful, humbling and thought-provoking...and in that way 'special'. It was the kind of experience that myself and my travel companion of the time talked about quite intensely afterwards, and I think both felt that we had been lucky to experience something that not everyone gets to experience.
As with seeing the lion, it is not something that happens everyday. It is something not everyone is fortunate enough to experience.
It does, and for me this is one of the main reasons we travel - to experience shifts in perception, to experience new and different things, to question where and why and how we are in relation to our surroundings.

No one spoke English. That really does give you a different perspective.
