Across the ocean to see you - Journey to Jishan Island

I hummed Su Youpeng’s backpack briskly, and liked to sit in the quiet car window and watch the changing scenery and the flowing figures. With the whisper of the wind in your ears, every scene and object outdoors can quickly ignite the excitement of raising the camera. The "click, click" condenses the time in front of you or leaves behind a youth full of vigor and vitality.

It’s just that I didn’t have my passport in my backpack, but a mobile phone, a camera, and a bus ticket, and I started my vacation journey. Where to play? Where to play? I slowly thought of Jishan Island, which is located in Yuhuan City, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, and is also known as Jiguan Mountain.

When I was a child, whenever I learned that a classmate came from Jiguanshan, I deeply felt that the road to education was not easy. It was like traveling across the ocean to see you. At present, food on Jishan Island relies on water transportation, so the price of vegetables on the island will be relatively expensive. Although there are some private plots on the island, because they are far away, it is inconvenient for the elderly to travel.

Perhaps on the map, Jishan is a tiny island off the east coast, but as young people, we subconsciously distinguish an unfamiliar land in our minds as a special piece of land. A very remote place.

However, after taking several buses to arrive at the Ganjiang Town Zhantai Pier, it is said that flights to Jishan usually depart every half hour before 9 o'clock, and every hour after 9 o'clock. It ended almost after three o'clock. However, during the holidays, according to the actual travel conditions of tourists from the mainland and the islands, when the flow of people is particularly large, sailings start back and forth almost every ten minutes.

That’s good, I don’t have to rush on the road and get up early to make an appointment with my family, one old and one young, for a public event. My mother has never been there, and it has been many years since my sister and I first went there...

When we arrived at the pier, there were already a lot of bustling tourists, and the maintenance staff wearing red sleeves gave us friendly reminders to go get our number plates and start waiting in line. It's just that there were a lot of people queuing up, and it was already over 50 when I got the ticket, so it was a bit stuffy to stand in. I don’t remember how long the queue was. Some of the people waiting here were going to Dalu Island, some were going to Shangjishan Island, and some were going to Yangyu Island.

"The ship is coming, the ship is coming!" Both children and adults are excited when they see the ship. When getting on and off the ship, the staff will give you a friendly hand for the safety of the passengers. With this warm human touch, Kaisen began his wandering journey. Although we did not go to Peach Blossom Island, we surprisingly saw peach blossoms blooming during this season. This is a story for another day. The fee on board is RMB 6 per person, which is surprisingly affordable. The bus fare in Yuhuan gave me the impression that it is expensive, expensive, expensive.

The wind and waves on today’s trip were a bit strong, and some women and children on the boat were worried about getting seasick. Following the swaying rhythm of the waves, it is like sitting on a sedan chair. "Relax, don't put a burden on yourself, we'll be there in a minute." While comforting the stranger next to me, I wanted to jump out of the cabin and feel the scenery outside. The wind and waves were too strong, and I was swaying when I got up and moved around. When I came to the entrance of the ship's cabin, I shrank away in fear. My baby was worried about what would happen if the phone was thrown into the sea. Ha ha.

Seeing that they were still frowning, the ship had already docked at the shore. Everyone was surprised again, no, it was so fast! Isn't it just a matter of chatting? For those who need to go to the toilet, there are public toilets on the docks, which is very convenient. Often when they get ashore, apart from the working locals, most tourists are attracted by the scenery in front of them and the moored boats. I started taking selfies and taking photos...

I couldn't walk immediately. After being in a cage for a long time, everything I saw seemed new to me. The sea breeze is also gentle and refreshing to the core. My sister smiled and said, "Is it okay to stand here and be blown by the wind all day?"

I asked about the return time of the last flight today. It was originally said to be four forty, but the wind and waves were strong. Just before half past three. Moji is my routine. Because of photography, I often have to walk behind the crowd, and I am always urged to leave. Secondly, it’s because I’ve been here before! The most important thing is that I still feel that I am not satisfied with the filming.

October planning: Do something meaningful. Taking advantage of the holidays, I used my camera to record the cultural and culinary customs of my hometown.

At the call, I started to walk forward, wow! Found a treasure! Whether you have been to Jishan Island or Baidu Jishan Guide, Jishan is a world for foodies. Naturally, that includes me, besides family and friendship, I love seafood the most. Seeing these whole boxes of fish that have just come out of the sea, I couldn’t help but ask how much does it cost per pound? The owner said that these were not for sale, which meant they had already been reserved. Then can I open it and take a look? My naughty curiosity came up. Mom scolded you, don’t you dislike the fishy smell and your hands are dirty? No problem, no problem, my eyes lit up when I saw the seafood. Damn it, are we here to sweep the streets? hoho....

Work has started, how can we stop doing serious business! Let’s follow the baby’s lens!

The post office on the island is still under renovation and will be popular in the future. The star films of literary and artistic youth will start from here.

"Take a picture of this hemp rope," the mother directed, and she was very supportive of the baby's preference for photography of code words.

Growing up in a fishing village, I have a natural affinity for the sea and fishing villages.

Welcome us, the bougainvillea is calling us from afar...

When you see the city flower of Xiamen, do you feel the rich southern Fujian style?

I was still wandering on the pier and saw the small cuttlefish sold for 15 yuan per catty. Don’t underestimate it because it is dark and fresh. My mother can’t wait. It’s just that it’s hot, so we can’t. Easy to carry around.

Have you ever seen such a big octopus?

During this trip, I discovered a lot of changes, and the distinctive murals created a strong cultural atmosphere. I like it very much. Get up and turn on the phone. Today, my baby will be your director. Hahahahaha, laughing wildly! "Are you bragging again?" "It's just for your own entertainment, your own entertainment."

The road ahead is winding, and I am still thinking about the ship.

Due to the weather, we didn’t see any seafood on display today. However, I stepped on a pile of vomit when I stepped back to take pictures, which made me sick.

"Quick shot, sweet potato vine." Mom turned on the command button again.
