My company organized a trip to Qiandao Lake on weekend, I’m taking bus with my friend at 5 o’clock pm, we’re arriving hotel at 7 o’clock, the local people very welcome to Qiandao Lake and invite us to eat dinner, After dinner we’re playing game together。

The next day, we’re visiting the lake by boat，we enjoy the beautiful views and eating some local desserts on the ship, it’s very delicious, so we eat a lot, after the ship arrived, we are hiking on the island and taking some photos。Then we back to hotel by bike instead of by boat, because Linda and Jack aren’t feeling well on board, we have a barbecue in the yard, we’re chatting and sharing interesting stories about work, at last we summing up experience and drawing lessons.
