A trip to Hangzhou

The school’s Hangzhou walking exploration activity was simply an adventure full of unknowns and surprises! From the initial expectation to the funny things that happened on the way, and finally unwillingness to leave, every moment has become a beautiful, memory. 

  Green challenge of Xixi Wetland: On the first day of this journey, we stepped into the Xixi Wetland. We thought it would be a fun and interesting paradise, but instead, we were greeted by endless green plants and seemingly endless hiking trails. Fortunately, with the company of friends, laughter, and chatting became our driving force. On the way, we encountered a “kingdom of ants”, many people were scared, but everyone plucked up their courage to cross this “dangerous area” together and keep up with the front line. As night fell, the bathroom in the camp became our “battlefield”. The bathroom is full of naughty little insects, so we cannot relax in the shower. 

  Tea picking fun and creature adventure: The next day, our task was to pick tea. I thought it was a relaxing and pleasant experience, but the reality was full of “scares”. Stepping on the sticky soil, shoes and pants are all covered with dirt, and the huge spiders and small unknown creatures are even creepier. However, it is these “small episodes” that make this tea-picking experience more memorable. Especially when the tea that the Biology teacher worked hard to pick and the tea that the students picked were casually mixed together, her expression looked sad. 

  Hiking in Longjing Village and talent show: On the third day, we arrived at Longjing Village, where we were greeted by an eight-kilometer hike challenge. The mountain road seemed to go forever, and every step was like a ladder to despair, but when I saw my friends around me insist, how can I give up? Finally, when we stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the whole Longjing Village, the sense of accomplishment was beyond words. the evening talent show brought the atmosphere to the climax. Many students showed their strengths, there were dancing, singing, and many funny performances. Even the teacher could not help but go on stage and show a dance posture. Everyone is cheering and laughing. The atmosphere was so warm that it seemed to burn up! 

  Farewell food feast: On the last day, we enjoyed a delicious lunch, which was a perfect end to the event. That meal seemed like the best reward for all the hard work we had put in these days. 

  Looking back on this journey, although I was tired and dissatisfied, I had more of a happy time spent with my classmates. This trip left me with many good memories, I really enjoyed this trip.

  1. The first paragraph provides an effective hook. I really feel your experience through your clear writing. Well done!

    I recommend you use images to make your post more attractive and use the ‘topic tags’ so your post shows up in topically related lists which make it easier for readers to find your work.

    • Yes, it is a useful way to organise the ideas. Perhaps Blablabla could consider styling the text (bold, italics or using headings settings) to make the headings stand out?

  2. I invariably agree with your affirmations. Enhanced vocabulary and impressive use of various expression methods, such as implementing quotations effectively to imply your thoughts. Something that immediately caught my eye in your essay was your use of colons at the beginning of each paragraph. I’m personally not a big fan of that, but it’s your passage, so form it how you want to.
