Travel Notes | Huazhu Sunrise

I returned to the hotel at around 8 o'clock. The first thing I did was to charge the camera's battery, and then I packed up other items. After washing up and settling down, I started searching for the sunrise time in Xiapu. It was around 6:25, so I went to Huazhu to make an appointment. 40 kilometers, it takes an hour to drive, starting at 5;20, set the alarm clock to get up at 5 o'clock. Checking the weather forecast again, Xiapu it will be cloudy in the morning of the next day (the third day of the Lunar New Year), it will rain in the afternoon, and then it will rain continuously. After discussion, it was decided to cancel the trip to Dayushan Island and continue watching the sunrise. Then go to Fuzhou, visit the three lanes and seven lanes, and pay homage to the Shipbuilding School.
The arrangements were made and the family slept peacefully.
When I woke up, I took out my phone and saw that it was already 5:15, but the alarm was not set. I got up in a hurry, washed my face, brushed my teeth, and packed up my photography equipment. Going to Huazhu or the nearest Beiqi? It was too shabby to see Beiqi last night and there would be no scenery. Even if you miss the sunrise, you should still go to Huazhu.
There were almost no vehicles or pedestrians on the road. When we got off the expressway, there were only the headlights of our car on the county road. Although the road conditions were not very good, after all, we walked back and forth yesterday and it was still okay to drive 50-60 yards.
It felt like the sky was a little cloudy, and it was slightly white when we arrived in Sansha. I knew there was no need to rush, and I expected to be able to catch the sunrise. At 6:15, we arrived at the parking lot of Huazhu Viewpoint, which was full of large and small cars.
On the other side of the island, thick black clouds were moving quickly under the strong wind, with a wisp of red clouds under the clouds. Everyone was waiting quietly, and the occasional few words revealed that everyone's hearts were getting heavier and heavier, and it was estimated that the sunrise would not be seen.
Several minutes have passed since sunrise, and the sun is still gone. People have begun to evacuate. Our schedule for the day is not tight, so we just sit back and wait for the rabbit. Even if we can't catch it, we won't lose anything.
At 6:40, there were screams of surprise. The sun actually came out of the gap in the dark clouds, far away from the red clouds. Shyly, he hid in the dark clouds before he fully emerged.

The tour guides began to ask tourists to leave, and most of the self-driving tourists gradually dispersed, and the observation deck suddenly became empty. The height of the clouds was not very high. I told my daughter that when the sun comes up a little higher, there should be a golden glow when it reaches the upper part of the clouds. My daughter said yes, and I said yes. Your dad has experience.
The wind blew the clustered clouds apart. After 7-8 minutes of fighting, the edges of the clouds appeared golden, and there were more and more clouds, quickly filling the entire cloud mass. I brought my daughter's camera to take some telephoto shots, but she was kind enough to just hand the camera over to me, saying she would just have some photos when she got home.
The sky quickly brightened, and the dark island looked like brocade against the reflected sea surface.

At 7:05, the sky was bright and the clouds were white. I said I would go to the east sea where I had been yesterday. We were the only car on the road. We drove about 1-2 kilometers. When the car turned around on the winding mountain road, we saw a small cloud in the gap between the clouds. Sunlight , like thousands of golden threads, The golden rays are shining on the sea. I told my daughter that this is called the Jesus Light. Doesn’t it give people a sense of inclusion and direction? Sacred, quiet, peaceful.

Due to the special angle formed by the clouds and the sun, the light of Jesus accompanied us for a long time. Ten minutes later, we reached the sea level. The light of Jesus was even more magnificent than when it first appeared. We ignored our hunger and used bamboo rafts, fishing boats, etc. A variety of prospects, photographed from multiple angles.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, there are times when we get tired. The wind stopped (or maybe it was blocked), but I was also hungry. I took out the outdoor stove, gas, pots, bowls and water in the car and cooked a pot on the cement floor of the pier. The hot noodles and the beautiful scenery are really comfortable.
After eating, I put all the garbage into the bag, picked it up with other items in the car, and started on the return journey.
On the viewing platform of Huazhu, I saw a single girl who seemed to be looking for a car. It turned out to be a college student from Guangdong. She was 1-2 years younger than my daughter, but she had traveled a lot by herself. , in this regard, her daughter is far inferior to her. She only got to Sansha, and the car could fit in it, so she brought him down along the way. She learned all this while chatting in the car.
At 9 o'clock, passing by the east wall, the Jesus light was still there. A fisherman was driving a small flat boat, working among the bamboo rafts.
