The sea, here I come
The sea has always been a temptation to me.
I have read many words describing the sea in books, such as the vast sea, the blue sea, the rough sea, the majestic sea, the confusing sea... I have also read There are many poems praising the sea, such as "The tide of the spring river reaches the level of the sea, and the bright moon on the sea rises with the tide." "The bright moon rises on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time." "Heavy rain fell on the swallows, white waves surged into the sky, and there was no ocean in sight." Between the lines, the sea gave me a particularly broad and mysterious feeling, and I developed a desire to see the sea very early on.
I have also seen the sea many times in movies and on TV. The descriptions of the sea in books have become vivid images, but this is not the real sea, not what I have seen with my own eyes. The sea is not a sea that can be touched with texture and feeling. Despite this, the vivid and beautiful sea scenes displayed on the screen still aroused my desire to see the sea. But for me, who lives in the mainland, it is not easy to see the sea due to the distance of space. I can only bury this thought in my heart.
After many years of longing for the sea, I finally waited for the opportunity to see the sea. In the early autumn of that year, I took annual leave and decided to take a vacation with my wife to Qingdao, Dalian and other places to enjoy the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and finally enjoy the sea that I had been dreaming about since I was a child.
The first time I saw the sea with my own eyes was in Qingdao. According to the vacation plan, my wife and I first took a train from Guangzhou to Qingdao. It was already around 4 pm when they arrived. They found a hotel to stay in and the two of them couldn't wait to see the sea. The sea is not far from the hotel. After turning a few intersections, I walked to the seaside square. The sea was immediately displayed in front of me. Although I have longed for the sea for many years and was fully prepared mentally on the way, when the sea suddenly came into view, I was still extremely excited and ran quickly to the seaside with great respect. With sincere joy, I stood and stared:
This is the real sea. A wide stretch of sea water is as blue and clear as the sky. It spreads from my feet to the endless sky like brocade, with a layer of white mist. The fog line connects the sky and the sea, and the sea water disappears beyond the fog line that is the ultimate sight.
This is the sea I have longed for for a long time. The sea water in front of me is blue and blue, with countless graces and charms. The hot autumn sun is still shining brightly and unobstructedly on the quiet sea. The sea surface is shining with spots of dazzling light in the circles of fine waves swayed by the gentle sea breeze. The sea breeze contains a faint fishy smell. The wind blows from the ground, cool and sultry.
This is the sea I first saw. It is exactly the same as the sea I long to see: broad, beautiful, and quiet. Broad, so wide that it can accommodate everything; beautiful, so beautiful that people admire it; quiet, so quiet that you can hear your own heartbeat... This made me more and more excited. I walked down the stone embankment of the seaside square, took off my leather shoes, and walked across On the soft beach, I walked barefoot into the sea, stretched out my hand to pick up handfuls of sea water and splashed it, and had close contact with the sea that I had been fascinated by for a long time. The sea water was slightly warm, and it surged lightly and gently. Towards the beach, I gently and happily moved my calves, sliding into my palms. They were soft and crispy, as if they were very happy for my arrival. I walked gently, casually and slowly in the sea water, My heart is already intoxicated...
"Dongwen, come quickly, you can take a yacht over there." My wife woke me up from my intoxication and hurried up to join her on the boat specially operated for tourists to enjoy the sea. yacht. After a while, "Beep--" the yacht's whistle sounded, and it drove out of the dock and sailed into the sea. The yacht sailed farther and farther away from the dock, and its speed became faster and faster. The bow plowed up large tracts of snow-white waves, and the sea breeze The strong blow blew up our hair and lifted up our clothes. I finally entered the wide sea. The sky was so blue and the sea was so blue. The sea and sky almost merged into one color. The yacht was like a shining silver The sword traveled quickly through such a blue sky. Looking back at the coast, you can see the corner of a modern city with tall buildings, which are even more beautiful against the sea. Looking into the depths of the sea, you can see endless blue waves, dotted with several sailing ships far and near. The autumn sun shines a little bit of sunshine, and the sea surface is shining with golden light. The scenery is extremely beautiful. I couldn't hold back my joy and shouted to the sea: "The sea - I'm here! I'm here to see you -"
In the next few days, I continued to have close contact with the sea. Feeling the wonderful surprise of the sea.
The next day, we went to Laoshan. The car drove along the seaside. The sea was in my sight far and near. I watched the vastness, beauty and vastness of the sea from all angles and directions. ...
On the third day, we went to Penglai and visited the famous Penglai Pavilion. Penglai Pavilion is a legendary place where gods and goddesses hang out. On the top of Danxia Peak, there is a wall with four large vermilion words saying "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" standing on one side. Legend has it that the "Eight Immortals" once crossed the sea on waves. Penglai Pavilion is also a place to watch mirages. There is a poem monument "Viewing Mirage" by Su Dongpo, and there is a special screening room for showing mirage documentaries. When I walked into Penglai Pavilion, I suddenly felt a bit fairy-like and a bit magical. Climbing to the top of the pavilion, you look far into the distance, with a broad field of vision. You can see the water and sky connecting, and the vast expanse of blue waves. Your mind suddenly becomes brighter. All the worries and worries in the world of mortals are gone with the sea breeze, and your whole body and mind are pure and bright.
I think if there is the sea in our lives, if we can stand on the beach and look at the sea every day, our minds will be broad and our lives will be happier.
On the fourth day, we went to Weihai and visited Liugong Island. The cruise ship sailed along the coast. On one side was the green mountains and on the other side was the blue sea. Under the clear sky, the sea water lined the coast. The mountains here are really as written in the ancient poem: "The water is like jasper and the mountains are like black daisy." They are so beautiful and brilliant. Just after we came out of the Sino-Japanese War Memorial Hall, we were shocked by the national humiliation and felt heavy-hearted. When we returned, we no longer felt as happy as when we came.
On the fifth day, we arrived in Yantai and took a large passenger ship to Dalian in the evening. This is also my first time taking a cruise, so I feel excited and nervous. After boarding the ship, we looked around the front and back of the ship and felt what it was like to take a sea cruise. After setting off the boat, I stood in front of the boat and behind the boat, admiring the sea in the night. I wanted to see a truly unobstructed sea, a truly boundless sea, and appreciate the beauty of the depths of the sea. In this way For a long, long time, I have been obsessed with watching the passenger ship heading into the sea. Until the lights on the Yantai coast disappeared, the sea in my eyes finally became a shoreless sea and a vast and vast sea. Under the quiet night sky, the wind and waves were calm, and a clear bright moon reflected the vast sea. The moonlight shone on the calm black-green sea, dancing like silver, and the sea looked like a child who had been tired from playing all day. I fell asleep hazily, and the sea surface was like an extremely huge sunglasses. At this moment, the ship was moving smoothly and at a constant speed. I couldn't feel any shaking. It was as stable as sitting on the ground. Standing on the deck and looking at the deep and vast sea, I felt like I had melted into the sea and the sky. In the meantime, there was no thought, no breathing, just following the passenger ship moving forward into the sea, moving forward...
On the sixth day, we arrived in Dalian, at Laohutan Park, and the sea on this trip Said goodbye. The weather in Dalian is still fine, and the sea here is also vast, beautiful, and soft. The water is still so blue and so green. Standing on the tall seawall of Laohutan Park, leaning against the majestic majesty of Laohu Mountain, I look towards the sea Waved goodbye: "Dahai, thank you for your warm hospitality! Thank you for your generous giving! I will come to see you again, goodbye——"
During this vacation, I met Dahai more than 10 times in 14 days Face to face, the weather was sunny everywhere, the sea was calm, and the scenery was picturesque. The sea left me with a perfect image. I know that the sea is not always docile, and the waves are not always gentle. The sea will also be unhappy. When it is unhappy, the waves will roll and shake the world. The sea water will also be angry. When it is angry, it will surge and roar, covering the coast... But Fortunately for me, the sea showed me all its beauty, tolerated its unhappiness and concealed its anger. I sincerely hope that the sea will always be so soft and gentle, and I hope that our lives will always be so beautiful and happy.
