2020 is full of changes and unexpected encounters.

How could you have thought that there would be a half-year long vacation and a unique online defense?

How can you think that Haitou has submitted hundreds of resumes, and at the last moment of graduation, you can change your company and go to Chengdu to do what you like?

How could I have thought that the long-awaited graduation trip actually originated from a phone call from 77 tutors.

After I decided to change my job, I suddenly relaxed and had a long blank time. Originally, I just planned to stay at school and visit the campus in the library every day. As a result, the school issued a very rude marching order. I had to pack my bags and leave and stay in Building 77.

The company that went to 77 was free to choose the entry time, and originally wanted to make a profit in early July. As a result, what the tutor said that day woke her up.

So, we quickly determined the route and destination, and then split up. I will go to Chengdu immediately to solve the problem of renting a house and prepare employment materials.

Xiamen will arrive in three days.

Thank you for satisfying my desire to see the sea.

I don't know why I want to see the sea. No, I must use obsession to describe this true feeling.

Probably when I was a child, I fell in love with the complete works of Verne, in which two Wan Li at the bottom of the sea tossed and turned several times. Nautilus and Captain Nemo, shells and huge sea monsters formed my first impression of the sea. Later, in all kinds of book music, the mystery and romance about the sea were deepened repeatedly, and I was looking forward to it more and more.

In the first twenty years of my life, I have never seen the sea seriously. Various travel plans have also been put on hold for various reasons. I finally seized the opportunity at the last minute of graduation.

This is probably a long-delayed travel note, a travel guide and vomit about Xiamen and Dongshan Island, and a short story about 77 and traveling by the way.

Travel, to enjoy yourself, the most important thing is to have a partner who is in tune.

I have always felt that I am very lucky to make friends. From primary school, junior high school, senior high school, university, graduate school to work, I am always lucky to meet friends who hit it off. I am not fit to talk about this topic except my boyfriend.

Speaking of 77, it is probably a wonderful fate.

Graduate students become roommates in the same professional class, because the same tall man quickly gets acquainted. The dormitory is empty at the weekend. 77 invited me to her house, so she just threw me the key to her house and told me to wait for the online workers to go out for dinner, so I still remember her WiFi password until now.

Later, we participated in the school ball game, went to the company to practice building a BIM model of a high-rise villa in Central Park, and painted a building a day, but we just couldn't afford it. The only expectation is the lunch box carefully prepared by seven chefs every day.

There is an oval face that I envy. When I smile, it's like flowers all over the world suddenly blooming, warm and brilliant. There is also the unique spicy taste of Chongqing girls, who have a crisp temper and are very skillful in doing things. I like her cool and casual energy, which is real, unpretentious, secular and quite cute. Eating and playing together is as superficial and enjoyable as hot pot and coke. Probably because of the similar height and personality, we became endless chatterboxes all the way, from Nanbin Road to Chaotianmen.

Last September, we arranged a trip to the northwest, through lakes and deserts, through snow-capped mountains and grasslands, and saw the Millennium Dunhuang and colorful Danxia. I have been thinking about planning my next trip since I came back.

So, I went to see the sea.

I went through a lot of raiders before I went to Xiamen, but there were only a few places to go back and forth. The main scenic spots are all in Siming District, not far apart, so it is more convenient to go by car.

It's actually a whole commercial street, but it's not bad to ride a bike to avoid the busiest streets and look at the alleys. The arc of the street is very beautiful. When you turn around, you can often see the intersection of two arcs, and a Yunfu is on it. Beige buildings and blue sky and white clouds complement each other, forming a kind of literary freshness belonging to coastal towns. The streets are winding and circling, one step at a time. During the epidemic, there were few tourists, and local people sat in the street shaking their fans and chatting in a dialect I didn't understand. In an instant, it seems that I have returned to Chengdu, and my uncle enjoying the cool under the banyan tree is drinking a cup of tea.

I walked around and found a public reading room hidden on the third floor at a waiting station. I went through two narrow wooden stairs and came to the third floor. There was no one there when I went, only two cats who were not afraid to look at the house, playing piano music. The display is all kinds of old objects, such as old desks, old bookcases, old books, old photos and old tapes, which are very chronological and full of fireworks. For example, the realistic version of "Building a house in a humanistic environment, but no chariots and horses" is like a sentence on the wall: reading a favorite book in the market is happiness.

It is a comprehensive local market with a large scale and a long history. There are many tourists and locals, and they have cooked popular foods, such as fried oysters, noodles with satay, Zhu Ji hand-torn chicken, Ajie spiced, and bakery. Peanut soup and malt sweet soup are too thick and sticky in ancient times, which is unacceptable to me and 77.

77 and I are both plant lovers. This time, we saw many tropical plants, from mosses and ferns to tall shrubs, all kinds of pitcher plants, ampelopsis, pineapples and jackfruit. The most distinctive is the desert plants on the top of the mountain, fleshy cactus with different shapes, which is very interesting. As for the rain and fog forest, there are many people taking pictures and the light is not very good, so it is very general.

It's worth a visit. Riding a bike along the coastline is still enjoyable.

Huangcuotan: The sea is not blue, but there are big rocks. Sitting and watching the sunset, accompanied by the sea breeze, is beautiful.

Xiamen University: (Because the epidemic is not open) Baicheng Beach at the entrance ... The water quality is very poor, there are still many people, and there is nothing interesting.

Cat street: I want to say that's it after I go there? It may be that the small shop is worth visiting, and there are not many open doors during the epidemic.

Zeng Cuo An Village: Like Ciqikou and Jinli, they are all famous cities. If you go there, you will regret it.

Cross-sea bridge: Seen from a distance on the cross-sea subway, there is probably no better time, so it is very common.

Gulangyu took a boat in the morning, found an old villa hotel and wandered around the island in the afternoon.

Plumeria and mango pass through the Woods.

Passing by Sunlight Rock, I found a poem at the entrance, "Oh, it is you who look up, you who bow your head, and you who close your eyes". It's so interesting. I only knew this sentence before, but I finally saw the original source.

Through Shuzhuang Garden and built by the sea, it combines the classicality of Jiangnan gardens with the luxury of the West.

I also passed a private villa with its own beach and seaside promenade.

Along the beach, there are many people taking wedding photos. More than a dozen couples huddle on a small beach, vying to take pictures of the uninhabited sea. It's really interesting.

At sunset, 77 was very excited to turn over the rocks by the reef, looking for small creatures left by the sea after the low tide. I lay on the beach, listening to the sunset flying, watching the sky getting darker and darker, the city on the other side lit up little by little, and the sea breeze brushed my face. It's beautiful.

Then I went back to my old villa half an island in the moonlight, took a bath, turned on the fan under the grape trellis in the yard, and talked with Qiqi about something, accompanied by insects and starlight.

I wanted to catch the sea, so I went out at six o'clock, passed through the church and cemetery on the island and arrived at Meihua Beach. As a result, this beach has only a large area of fine and soft gravel, and there is no reef. So I searched for rocks along the coast, and then went to the reef beach I had been to before. I continue to discover new marine life and explore new happiness. I was lying on a huge rock, blowing the sea breeze. There are few pedestrians on the beach, only the sound of the waves is quiet and beautiful.

Dongshan Island was originally thought to be an ordinary scenic spot. It was really fragrant and became the highlight of the whole journey. To this end, we directly gave up the follow-up trip and stayed on the island.

The main scenic spots are located near Tongling Town, Xiao Yun, Zhangzhou, Fujian. Take a 40-minute high-speed train from Xiamen to Xiao Yun Station, and take 1h bus to Tongling Town. Compared with the depression in Gulangyu affected by the epidemic, the island is still intact and there are many tourists.

On the first night, we booked a room with the sea outside the window and a large terrace on the roof. After packing, I simply ate something and went to Nanmenwan. The night is getting late, the sky is dark blue, and the color of the sea is deeper. There are many people walking along the seashore to enjoy the cool, mostly tourists from southern Fujian, speaking dialects we don't understand, with a lovely Taiwan Province accent. The sand on the beach is rough, and it is a bit awkward to step on it. The waves are very urgent, rolling up a large white foam, and a little fishing fire floating on the sea a little further away, flickering and extinguished. I was sitting in the hair dryer when 77 suddenly rushed over and carried a small white crab, like a treasure. The next morning, because the window was not closed, I woke up in a daze at four o'clock, saw a piece of pink outside the window, shook it directly and ran to the terrace to watch the sunrise. However, the sunrise in Nanmenwan is covered by the buildings in Tongling ancient town, which is not particularly beautiful.

Because it is inconvenient to eat at the seaside, we changed to a shop in town. The owner of that shop is very interesting, rich and Buddhist. He pointed to the map on the first floor and told us about the historical changes of Tongling Town and his life story. Now, as a man with two buildings, he just runs a hotel to kill time. Go to work on time every day, close the front door and leave the back door to the guests. What an enviable life.

After that, I rented a small red electric donkey in an electric car shop and officially started the life of the islanders.

When I went to Jinluan Bay, it was really shocking to see the mirror beach, because the beach was too flat, and the waves faded to form a thin water film, forming a layered mirror effect, reflecting the blue sky. This is a wonderful scenery.

Later, we can see fishermen fishing, a group of people trawling to the shore, and the net is full of bouncing small yellow croaker.

The most suitable place in Jinluan Bay is to watch the sunrise. We watched it twice. Once near the fishing port and once near Jingtan. Sunrise on the mirror beach is the most beautiful.

Sunrise at Jingtan, Jinluan Bay: Sunrise

You can climb Sufeng Mountain all the way along the island road, with four large viewing platforms on it. There is Yanya Village on the way, and you can follow the path until you reach the reef group. The location on the map shows that this place is called "Yanya lover". The sea water is crystal clear as jelly, the rolled-up fine sand shines in the sun, the distant sea is blue and shrouded in mist, and the distant lighthouse seems to float on the sea surface.

The top observation deck has the best view, overlooking the whole Jinluan Bay, which really satisfies all my imagination of the sea. Blue sky and white clouds, blue sea fishing boats, golden beaches.

Then we also came to the island road to watch the sunset and sunrise, which was another scene. In the evening, many people come by car or set up stalls to make four fruit soups or snacks. There is also a row of tea tables for everyone to drink tea, which is not the silence of the morning at all. Everyone is chatting in the sea breeze and singing loudly, which is simply lively. The sea is also lively, and there are many fishing boats, burning blue-green light, like stars in the sky falling into the sea floor.

On the morning I left, I went up the mountain to watch the sunrise. It was another beautiful scene, lavender smoke, pink sky, like a dream world.

Sunrise in Sufeng Mountain

Just listening to the name is beautiful enough. This is an island that can only be crossed at low tide. Through a large reef, you can reach the big green and white lighthouse. When we arrived at noon, the sea showed pure sea blue, big white clouds, waves beating against rocks, and we chatted in the shadow under the lighthouse blowing sea breeze, which was simply wonderful.

The ancient town built on the mountain, the most worth visiting is Wengong Temple. You can see the whole ancient town and Nanmenwan from above, and take a shot of the left ear on the rooftop here. Slowly waiting for the sunset, watching the afterglow cover the house with gold, swallows hovering, and the pink sunset glow rising slowly in the sky.

After eating pot-stewed vegetables in the people's market, the proprietress warmly made tea for us. It seems that every household there has a tea set. No matter what they do, they always greet the guests for tea first.

Around 9 pm, there is a night market opposite the old market, which is seafood just salvaged at night. Dongshan small tube must try!

Two good shops: Kannika nimtragol sweet soup and Jeffery Ji meatballs.

Finally, put some photos of 77 as the ending beep ~
