On the days when I don't go to work, there will be haze in my heart, and I even suspect that my Mercury is retrograde recently. The small yoga article I wrote with all my heart and soul had no obvious marketing tendency, but I was warned on three self-media platforms.
When I pressed them to list the illegal content, some platforms remained silent, which is unreasonable; Submitting an application is very difficult.
At this time, I will think about it, stupid and rigid artificial intelligence and algorithms, how can you be smarter than humans? I don't know how many times I have been cheated by the machine, and it is not too much to write it down. But the beautiful mood, how to restore it? I had no choice but to take Ms. M out for a drive.
Ms. M enthusiastically recommended several alternatives, but I didn’t like them. I suddenly found out that Jinhai Lake has an online celebrity mountain toboggan project, and I went to Pinggu to pick big peaches. I was a little excited. I originally wanted to go to Panggezhuang to buy Daxing watermelons, but my mother laughed at me, "The watermelons are out of season, and July is the right day." Well, Pinggu Datao, I can't miss it this time.
I searched on the Internet and found that there is a Bibo Island in Jinhai Lake, and there are many water sports on it, including kayaking. These three words can make me feel overwhelmed. What are you still hesitating about, Saturday, Jinhai Lake, let’s go!
In order not to be late, I deliberately skipped the Ashtanga yoga practice in the morning, did a quick cleansing method, and ran towards Ms. M's house. Every time I go out, I go to Jiuxian Bridge to meet her first, and then sit in her family's Xiaohong to go happy. She is a rock and roll female driver. I am not as good at driving, but as a co-pilot, I am more than enough.
Handing breakfast to the driver, handing water, and reading the navigation, I am very familiar with these. This time, I also prepared socks and scarves for myself, because Ms. M’s air conditioner might be a bit fierce, and my weak and small body can only ask for blessings.
Depart from Jiuxian Bridge, get on the Jingping Expressway, and it takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes to start. There are no big cars or small cars on the road. It seems that we will arrive soon after chatting. When we get off the highway, there are small tricycles selling peaches on the side of the road. Ms. M said, we are looking for a good-looking parasol, and we can buy peaches... Okay, winning by the beauty of the parasol is amazing!
Although on the way, I remembered that I should navigate directly to Bibo Island, but I realized it when I was approaching the entrance of Jinhai Lake. It was already too late, so I had to queue up to pay the parking fee, enter directly, and take a cruise ship to board the island instead.
I once planned to use the park annual pass to enjoy a benefit, but I was so excited that I forgot all about it, so I bought a 130 yuan ticket + cruise ticket with Ms. M. In fact, the two of us visited Jinhai Lake a few years ago. It was March, there was no one there, and there was a big lake. This is the only remaining impression I have of Jinhai Lake.
As soon as I entered the gate, there were many large lawns. Some parents took their children to pitch tents. Why did I accidentally enter the Children's Paradise? In the distance is a high dam, which can be climbed directly, or take a sightseeing escalator. Without hesitation, the two of us walked to the escalator at a corner in the garden, went up and down the escalator four times, and boarded the dam.
The sun was a bit high that day, the sky was cloudy, and it was a bit hot. The mountains in the distance are looming, with the charm of ink painting, but the blue sky can't be seen at all. I thought to myself, why is there no blue sky in Pinggu? It's a pity that the vast lake is only short of that touch of military parade blue.
To go to the cruise ship terminal, we need to cross the dam, so we walked forward step by step under the scorching sun. Sweating is inevitable, but my heart is full of anticipation, and the joy of reuniting with the kayak is almost unbearable.
I have read the guide, and the reason why I don’t want to take a cruise ship is that there is a boat every 40 minutes, and it takes too much time to wait for the boat. But because it is the weekend, there are quite a lot of cruise ships. Before boarding the boat, I bought a piece of corn to satisfy my hunger. I knew I would be hungry, so Meimeidi boarded the boat with the water and corn I brought.
There are still vacant seats in the first row, so Ms. M goes straight to the point. As soon as I saw the driver's empty seat, I began to imagine that one day I should learn to drive a boat. After waiting for a short while, the cruise ship was full, and we set off. There is air-conditioning in the boat, and there are two open windows in front of the cabin, which is convenient for me to view and take pictures.
There was a tour guide on the boat, who briefly introduced Jinhai Lake. I only remembered that this is the national kayaking training base, and I completely fell into the kayaking pit.
Most of the time, I was looking into the distance and kept taking pictures with my mobile phone, all of which were all kinds of lakes and mountains. The small wind on the lake is blowing head-on, which is very comfortable. I really want to sigh, this should be the original way of life!
Ten minutes later, we arrived at Bibo Island. I didn't rush to the kayak, I always felt that it was there, and at this moment, I found a place and started to eat corn. Uh, this corn is a bit hard, it should be corn that I am used to steaming in a pressure cooker. The tourists next to them are also replenishing at noon, and occasionally there will be the smell of instant noodles. Although I know the taste is average, but the smell is really tempting.
After that, we were looking for the entrance of the water project. We continued to move forward along the only road, passing the Maya Hotel, the lawn and several European-style houses. Ahead, the signs for water sports are in front of you, so excited! Ms. M went first, I'm going to the hotel next door to borrow a bathroom, and make final preparations.
When I came to the water sports entrance, Ms. M was busy with work, and several parents were waiting with their children. It was said that the coach was on a lunch break and opened at 1 o'clock. I'm not in a hurry, so I just take pictures and look at the lake, which is quite pleasant. On the other hand, the coaches, apart from chatting, should be waiting for lunch.
After a while, lunch came, and the coaches were going to feast on it. Ms. M is also ready. When I wanted to rent a boat, an accident happened.
The coach asked me twice, are we in a group? I'm sure we weren't and then we were told it opened at 2. Wow? I'm about to cry because we have other schedules behind us. I wanted to ask the coach to be flexible, but he was very firm, hey, doomed to miss.
Thinking of the two pairs of father and son who had just landed from the kayak, I was so envious. Looking at the distance, it seems that some people are kneeling on the board, and some are standing, paddling leisurely. This should be a paddle board event. I secretly made up my mind that I must come again soon, and I will drive to the island to kayak. Maybe, I can make this a regular project and learn to paddle board, so cool!
This decision was made hastily and bravely, because it is more than 100 kilometers away from my home, and it is estimated that it will take 2 hours to drive. For me, who usually only drives in the city, basically 30 kilometers one way, it is quite challenging. But for the water sports that I love, I am willing to try! At the same time, I have to work hard and earn more pocket money to achieve my small goals.
When I was about to leave the gate, I saw several uncles repairing plants, and I really liked the fresh smell. Although it was a bit noisy and the wind blowing from the machine was a bit strong, I still liked this scene very much. I felt alive and even my mood was beautiful. The little yoga essay hurdles I encountered this week are nothing. As long as I am reasonable, I have not broken the rules, and I insist on doing what I think is right.
The return journey started with the purchase of Pinggu peaches. I chose a stall on the side of the road. A box of 12 peaches costs 30 yuan. I also left my eldest sister’s WeChat account. If the taste is good, I can express it in the future. I suddenly thought of my kayak and bought Pinggu Datao as a side benefit of the kayaking project, and I was secretly happy.
In the days to come, I will repeat in my heart, when will I go to Jinhai Lake again? My kayak and paddle board are waiting for me!
