Children's' Day
Children's Day
Today is Saturday. Three of my friends and I went to the Mochou Lake Park.
Mochou, also written in Chinese is"莫愁 ". It's first meaning is worrying about nothing. But here, it is a the nickname of a young lady about a thousands years ago. She was pure, she was beautiful and she was also good at taking care of sick people. When everyone saw her, they would not worringy about nothing anything. After she married, her husband was murdered. But never say yes to the Bureaucratic feudalism. The poor woman jumped into the Lake. So, for momerying her to remember her (or "for her memorial), people called the lake "Mochou" after that. Years passed by, with promenade, waterside pavilion, facilities such as outdoor stages and planting flowers and trees,
the lake became a park.
Though Although it is rainy today, there were also many tourists in the park.When we went into the park, the lotuses planted in the large jars near the entrance shocked us. They are so amazing. Lots of poets praises lotus, it is in the silt but don't doesn't die. My friend took some photos, we all said that it seemed like artificial flowers from the picture. It smelled so good.The lotuses are colorful. I remembered that each color even have has a meaningful name, such as rough、sparkle、bright pearl and so on.
Then we went to watch the dragon boat racing.The participants were all wet, but their family and company colleagues under the pavilions were encouraging them.
We walked around the park till the lunch time. We all love delicious food, so had an abundant lunch next. Then we found a coffee shop, cups of cafe Americano, chatting and do did some shopping.
I resigned few days ago. Nowadays,it is difficult to find jobs, and after paying the rent I felt so sad. But with my close friends, I believe everythings will be better. It is a nice Childrens' Day.
Best wishes to everyone!
This is great, Esther! The pictures are so beautiful - I must visit this park one day! I wish you good luck with finding a new job. Happy Children's Day!
