Let’s talk about my journey trip.

When will you go there?

I already go went there for five days.

When did you go there?

I went there last Saturday.

Tell me every single detail about every minute of your trip…

I want to, but that would be boring and I’d need a long time to talk about every single detail.

Haha ok, I guess that’s too much, just tell me what you want about the trip.

I remember the a saying from the video, when I get on the train, like dear passengers, welcome to aboard the CRH train. Please sit according to your ticket and put your luggage on the luggage rack and the large luggage in the end of the train, the train leaving. And my daughter why the train is leaving, I told her we will go to another place that is beautiful and we will have  a great vacation. We taked about 5 hours to get to the train station of xiapu. We also take a taxi to our destination. Is a beautiful house called Xi Jian Hai, this is a local hotel. Which is opened by a young couple. This was a casual trip, we didn’t do a lot of work on, we do not do a plane for this trip, we just go there and take my kids to the sandy beach. But this beach is very small and not so many people play there. But this is a good place to see the sun rise and the sunset. So a lot of photographers there to take a photo. And we also see some fish farmers to pick up the small crabs, they told me they can pick up 200 to 300 pieces every day and sold to the people who raise about .3 yuan per piece.
