“It’s so boring!” I complained.
Spending the whole morning doing nothing, I decided to do something new.
Therefore, I called my foreign teacher, asked whether she would like to go on a trip. She said yes.
We went to the bus station and chose to go to Jinyun Mountain., and then started our trip.
I had never thought that this trip would be such an interesting experience that I would never forget.
Sitting on the bus and looking outside, I felt the sights were not the same as before.
An uneasy feeling arouse spontaneously-we might take the wrong bus.
I asked the driver where the bus would go, and his answer proved my guess.
We got off the bus, stood at the bus station and didn’t know where to go.
A stranger came to us and asked whether we needed help.
“We are lost.” I told him.
“Aren’t you a native?
Where will you go?” He asked me with his warm eyes.
I explained that we were new there and told him our destination.
Knowing our situation, he decided to be our guide.
So we went to a new bus with him.
On the way to the mountains, he told us many historic stories about China.
It really broadened my eyes and made me more knowledgeable, because I had never heard of those stories before.
It also made me realize that I should have known more about our traditional culture.
Compared with him, I was so lacking in historic knowledge.
After one hour, we finally got there.
Instead of choosing the flat road that many people walk, he guided us to choose another paved path with so many stairs.
Few people chose that way, hence, it’s very quiet.
When we were climbing, he told us there were 498 stairs in total.
When people built the path, there was no machine, so they had to use their strength to build those stairs.
It really impressed me a lot.
Just as the saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” If we have a clear goal and try our best, we can achieve it.
Although it’s hard to climbing the mountain, we were not tired at all.
Thanks to the stranger, we heard many interesting and exciting stories.
Two hours past so fast, and we finally got to the top of the mountain.
We stood there and appreciated the flowing river, the lush and green trees, and the small city “under” our foot.
The soft breeze was kissing our face.
It was definitely the most relaxing moment that I ever had.
This trip let me and the stranger become friends, heard of many interesting stories, and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
It is such an unforgettable experience that will keep in my mind forever.
