The Adventures of Odyssea: Ch 4.3 - Calypse

In this episode, you will hear the prosess of Daxin and his mother's trip from Beijing to Hainan. Enjoy it!

到家了
大新自己开车，从北京，带妈妈去海南。北京到海南非常远，有2600多公里。有的人会问，为什么不坐飞机呢？坐飞机更快，更容易，更轻松。可是，大新觉得开车更安全。因为那个时候还有新冠疫情。坐飞机的话，妈妈可能生病。大新和妈妈从北京出发，第一天和第二天，每天都要走800到900公里，妈妈很累，后来，他们就走得慢一点儿。每次看见服务区，他们就到服务区休息，带妈妈做一些简单的运动，跟妈妈说话。他们一般在车上吃饭。第三天的晚上，因为下雨了，他们在梧州的一个酒店住了一个晚上。第四天，他们到了徐闻港。因为海南是一个岛，所有从中国大陆到海南的人和车都必须从徐闻港坐渡船到海南。等船的人很多，他们等了两个小时才上船。九十分钟以后，他们到了海口。大新和妈妈是最后下船的，因为妈妈的腿脚不方便。他们在海口又休息了一下才在开车回家，他们的家在三亚的亚龙湾，还要开几个小时的车才能到。终于，在第四天下午五点半左右，大新和妈妈到了海南的家。大新觉得妈妈特别棒，这么远的路，妈妈一直有好心情。终于到家了，大新和妈妈都可以好好休息休息了。
