During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the family decided to travel to Zhoushan, an island closer to home.

We started planning and looking forward to this trip very early. Among the many islands in Zhoushan, we finally decided on Shengshan Island and Gouqi Island. These two islands are connected by a bridge and are equivalent to one island.

Because I don’t like traveling in a hurry, I take everything at my own pace.

It doesn’t matter how many places you visit, the important thing is to feel it all with your heart.

Before departure, we first booked a B&B and then made a travel plan based on the B&B’s recommendations.

Departing at 5 a.m. on June 12th, driving a business car by yourself, the journey lasted 3 hours.

Arrive at Shenjiawan Pier via Shanghai.

The boat ticket is booked by the B&B on its behalf. The 9:00 boat is a high-speed passenger boat. It takes 1h40min to get to the island, and the boat is quite dizzy.

It was past 11 o'clock when we arrived at the B&B. We had to finish lunch first and eat the meal we had ordered at the B&B in advance. Crab rice cakes, fried eels with celery, fried pumpkin, croaker, lettuce, eggs, and seafood noodles.

Probably these dishes were not recorded at the time, so this is a menu written down from memory.

The name of the B&B is Shancheng Villa. Mussels are raised in the sea pasture. Shengshan is known as the hometown of mussels.

After dinner, we went to the B&B to rest, and took a taxi to the first attraction, the uninhabited village, around 3 p.m.

The taxis on the island have their own fleet. You only need to contact one taxi driver for the whole journey, which is quite convenient. However, the taxi drivers on the island drive too hard and are a bit unsafe.

Although I had seen various pictures of the uninhabited village on the Internet in advance, when I was actually there, I was completely shocked. The village was surrounded by a small bay, and there was a light mist floating on the bay.

The sea water is particularly blue, exuding a sense of silent tranquility, and there are several wooden boats floating on the water. It is not a simple fishing village, but a "peach blossom garden" with a sense of isolation from the world.

I thought, if I were a villager in this village, with such a small building facing the sea, and standing by the window every day to see such a magnificent scene, how would I feel in my heart.

Because we arrived too late, we didn't finish exploring the scenery, probably not even half of it, but even so, the stairs on the way back were already unbearable for us.

The inconvenience of transportation is probably an important reason why this village has become an uninhabited village.

Starting from the scenic spot in the uninhabited village, we took a taxi to the town of Shengshan Island and went to a localized seafood restaurant with good online reviews.

Mussels, razor clams, sea melon seeds, run-of-the-mill eggs, conch, tiger fish, seafood fried rice, miscellaneous fish, squid, oysters, shrimps, you probably still remember these dishes.

The taste of this store is very good and the price is reasonable. It is full of customers.

After eating, we took a walk on the street. I especially like to visit the night market on the island, but the streets in Shengshan Town are too short and there are few shops. The varieties in big supermarkets are still much worse than those outside. It took a short walk

We then headed back to the B&B.

In the photos taken at the B&B, my grandfather and my mother were traveling with me. My father was too busy with work and did not travel with us.

On the second day, June 13th, after having breakfast at the B&B, we headed to Dongya Cliff. The scenic spot is very simple, just watch the sea from the edge of the cliff. But in the past, when we went to the beach, we always watched it from the beach, which is on the same plane as the sea.

Only this time I went to the cliffs to see the sea. It was indeed spectacular and the water was blue. It was a worthwhile trip.

There was a fishing boat shuttled between the cliffs. I guess they were fishing for shellfish on the cliffs. Barnacles or Buddha's hands were the only two that I could think of.

At noon, the taxi driver took us to another seafood restaurant. The taste of this restaurant was not as good as the one last night. We ate a new seafood, green fish, which is very similar to saury.

After eating, we didn’t call for a taxi. We walked slowly back to the B&B together and saw the usual scenery on the island.

The original itinerary for the afternoon was to go fishing, but because it rained a little, we canceled it. At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, I took a bus directly to Gouqi Island via the Sanjiaojiang Bridge. Although my memory is blurry, I can't remember the color of the bridge.

, but it always feels like red.

We went straight to Dawang Beach. The beach is not very big, the flow of people is moderate, and it is not very clean.

I took off my shoes and walked in the sea water. The sea water was very cold. After walking back and forth for a few times, I couldn't stand it anymore. So I walked on the sand, picked up some broken shell fragments, and even caught a small hermit crab.

After leaving the beach, I originally planned to go shopping in the food court opposite to have dinner, but a fight broke out in front of a shop halfway through the food court, so I stopped shopping.

Among the many policemen who handled the dispute, there were two good-looking policemen who will not be mentioned here.

Later, we went to a seaside restaurant. The price was very expensive and the food was mediocre. But fortunately, there was a bar next to it. Love songs were sung by resident singers. The night was hazy, the sea was blowing, and there was wine in the glass. As I listened to the love songs, I couldn't help but feel...

Thousands of ripples appeared, thinking of it as a movie scene.

Not hurt by love, but also hurt by love.

It's just that I never think that life should be "forced to express sorrow in order to compose new words". Even frustrated feelings should be beautiful and peaceful.
