Spring Outing

Finally, the weather didn’t disappoint us and turned sunny. We were able to go outing which had been planned for a long time.

In the beautiful sunny morning, Lussie, Boss Huang, Sunny, Cliff and I set off for the Yao Mountain. Our main purpose was to enjoy the blooming azalea.When we got to the foot of the mountain, looked at the rugged muddy path, we hesitated and finally changed our mind. Just as what Sunny said: we were here for flowers, relaxing, not for trekking. Then we turned to Lingtian, Boss Huang’s home village, of which scenery he was quite proud. He highly recommended it and promised that we wouldn’t be disappointed as few tourists went there. What’s our five's slogan? Discovery Our Way!

We drove along the winding paths, enjoyed the hillsides which were in flames with azaleas. Only by that time, I realized how vivid and apropos the azalea were given to another name of “Ying Shan Hong” in Chinese: The red azalea showed up to advantage with the green mountains.

Later in the afternoon, we returned home with balmy greenness on our backs and freshness in our hearts.
