Last weekend, Haida organized Hangzhou foreign teachers to go spring outing and barbecue at Tongjianhu Lake.

We arrived at the destination at around 11am—lunch time. Everyone started to prepare food—pork, chicken breast, chicken wings, saury fish, croakers, leeks, sweet chillies, rice cakes, buns, all laid out on the grill. 

With the rising temperature of the charcoal, the food started to sizzle and turn gold. The fragrance of meat with cumin and smoky flavor diffused in the air, stimulating every hunger nerve.

Waiting for the food to be ready is also an enjoyable process.

‘Watching the food gradually become cooked is a joy’ everyone agreed.

Shortly after, the food was done to a turn and became crispy and fragrant, the appealing hue of the food made us could not wait to have a bite. 

Everyone was eating the grilled food while drinking and chatting, comfy atmosphere of the spring day made us want to sit for a whole day relaxing.

After the lunch, what to do next was sleeping…of course not, we went bow shooting!

They look valiant and cool when they drew the bow, like the hobbits confronting the dragon without fears. Aim at the target, making the bullseye was a piece of cake for them.


After bow shooting followed the game of ‘fast and furious’. We jumped onto the kart and held the steering wheel tight, going uphill and downhill, turning corners without putting on the brakes. Our clothes were studded with splashed mud, just like some trendy decorative patterns of ghetto graffiti.

In the end, we went to the greenhouse to pick strawberries. We were picking while eating, like if having obtained ‘lovely energy’, everyone were so cute and adorable like babies.

We ended up this spring outing with a lot of joys. Looking forward to the Longjing-tea trip next month!
