Recalling the promise made before getting married, I always keep it in my heart

On the afternoon of October 10, 67-year-old Dong Hao and his wife were looking through travel diaries and photo albums at home...with a happy and satisfied smile. It bloomed on their faces, and the two of them looked at each other and exchanged a few words from time to time. There was a lot of love between the two of them.

Uncle Dong and his wife Aunt Li, who live in Shenbei New District, are both 67 years old. Uncle Dong in front of him was wearing a faded suit and a pair of bronze trousers; his wife was wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt and a pair of white trousers. "Both of us got our clothes from relatives and friends. In more than 10 years, neither of us has bought new clothes. All our retirement wages have been spent on traveling."

Uncle Dong said with a smile: "Everything is My travel diary and travel photos are the biggest gains.”

In 2002, Uncle Dong’s pension was 1,000 yuan. My wife’s pension is 600 yuan, and the two of them add up to less than 2,000 yuan. However, the modest pension does not bother them. “The two of us have agreed to spend 800 yuan each month for living, and another 800 yuan. Yuan is used for traveling.”

When he really wanted to leave, Uncle Dong found that there were too many things to prepare. "I mainly refer to "Traveling in China" and other books to formulate travel plans. I classify each scenic spot according to its geographical location, and then take several neighboring provinces with me to visit them all in one trip. Our first stop It’s Beijing.”

If you have a plan, you still need money. In order to save every penny, see one more attraction and buy one more ticket, Uncle Dong and his wife prepared two large bags of food before their first trip, including instant noodles, biscuits, etc. “We eat instant noodles in the morning and lunch at noon. Biscuits, we go out early and come back late every day. In less than 10 days of travel, we both lost 9 pounds. But when we stood in Tiananmen Square, my heart was full of excitement, and my wife and I cheered and jumped. I also brought my household registration book and marriage certificate. "When I was staying in the hotel, I also handed over my marriage certificate. The staff looked at us and said with a smile what a happy old couple, all they need is ID cards... It attracted We both laughed out loud."

I took 20,000 photos and wrote a 2 million-word diary

Talk about the harvest of these years of travel, the old couple opened the cabinet at home and was full of joy. Full of travel photo albums and travel diaries: "This is the wealth we leave to our children!" Uncle Dong's wife used to be a private teacher. "Every time I go on a trip, I am responsible for taking photos, and my wife is responsible for recording. She records the time and place. , everything I saw, heard, and important scenic spots were recorded one by one. After I returned home, I reorganized the travel records into a travel diary, and the photos I took were also sorted into categories. ”

Uncle Dong’s travel diary is divided into categories. There are two parts, one is an introduction to the scenic spots visited, and the other is anecdotes, feelings, gains and inspirations encountered during the trip. For example, “When we were traveling in Yangzhou, we happened to catch up with the local March 3rd festival. When we went to see the excitement, we took photos and recorded some of what we saw and heard. After the media reporters who interviewed on the scene saw it, they also We were interviewed, and we were even on Yangzhou TV that night, and all of this will be recorded in the travel diary.”
