Yunluo and An Qingjue spread out their fishing rods on the bridge, and it took them a while to untangle the tangled fishing lines. A new problem arose: Yunluo and An Qingjue had brought no fish food. It should be noted that neither Yunluo nor An Qingjue were experts at fishing, and Yunluo's last time fishing was a long time ago, so it was no surprise that he was in a rush.
The problem of fish food still needed to be solved. A friend had a solution. He ran to the reef under the bridge and picked up a few conches, smashed them and fed them to the fish. After working for half an hour, Yunluo finally cast his first sea fishing rod, first fishing rod in Australia, first fishing rod at night, and first fishing rod on the bridge. Ten thousand words are omitted below!
The fishing line drew a perfect arc in the air, and the spinning sound of the reel was pleasant and melodious. With a "dong", the fishhook was thrown into the sea. The float was completely invisible on the dark sea surface. It would be strange to catch fish in such a day! After casting the rod, Yunluo and An Qingju started chatting on the bridge. After 3 or 5 minutes, Yunluo thought it was time to take a look.
So I reeled in the line and rod. The reel spun briskly, making a squeaking sound, but I still couldn't see where the float was. When the line was about to be reeled in, I felt a slight increase in resistance. I turned it twice more and suddenly realized something was wrong. There was a fish! Everyone focused their attention on the water and saw a flash of white light.
The fish was pulled out of the water by Yunluo without any resistance. This was good. LD and his female friend exclaimed in surprise. Yunluo stepped up his efforts and finally pulled the fish safely onto the bridge.
The fish was not big, about the size of a palm, but it had a big mouth full of tiny teeth. We could not get the hook out of it even though it jumped around on the bridge. My friend quickly ran back to the car to get a towel and needle-nosed pliers, and then we unhooked the fish. I didn't expect that I would have such a great success right after I started fishing. This was a perfect ending to Yun Luo's numerous firsts in fishing.
The people fishing nearby still had no catch. Yunluo thought that there was no other explanation except that Yunluo and An Qingjue were good people. Later, Yunluo and An Qingjue took the fish to the bridge and compared it with the diagram, but they did not find the corresponding diagram. The mystery of the fish's identity was waiting for the master to reveal it!
Seeing Yun Luo's harvest, everyone became excited and took turns to cast their rods and fish. But they tried every trick in the book, but in the end, they didn't catch anything.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yunluo and An Qingju returned to the capital with their only spoils. After driving out of the parking lot, they found that there were many vehicles gathered on the coastal highway, playing pop music loudly. Thinking that today was Friday, a grand car party might be about to begin.
Today is Saturday. According to the plan, Yunluo and An Qingju will take their whole family to Sydney, about 60 kilometers north of Sydney, for a period of 3 days. There are 6 people in the group, and one car cannot accommodate them. What should we do?
It doesn't matter. Yunluo had already booked a car online last night, so the first thing she did in the morning was to go to Hertz on Williamstreet with her friends to pick up the car. When they arrived at the counter, Yunluo and An Qingju were shocked. It was crowded inside, with a long line of customers waiting to rent a car. This was the first time they had encountered such a large scene in Australia.
The team moved slowly, and after waiting for 30 minutes, Yunluo and An Qingjue still hadn't arrived. After discussing with his friend, he went home to pick up the others. Yunluo continued to wait here, and finally met here.
It took about 10 minutes for each customer in front of me to process the process, and a lot of time was spent on registering personal information. After waiting for another 20 minutes, Yunluo finally arrived. Since Yunluo had made advance reservations online, the entire car rental process only took 1 or 2 minutes. The staff here didn't even ask for Yunluo's driver's license. It's really a different rule in different places.
Holding the key, he looked for a parking place and asked the staff at the car return office, but he didn't get a patient answer. However, he was more cautious and finally found Yunluo and An Qingjue's car in the most hidden corner on the second floor of the parking building on the side of the road.
When Yunluo got in the car, she suddenly found that the amount on the receipt was wrong. They actually added full insurance maxcover to Yunluo, which cost more than $20, but Yunluo had already told the staff that she didn't need it.
So he went back to the store and explained the problem to the staff at the counter, a Chinese employee. The young man helped Yunluo pass the receipt to the staff who handled the car rental for Yunluo, probably a Latin American lady, and briefly explained the problem. The lady put the receipt aside without any expression and continued to handle the unfinished car rental procedures in her hands.
I thought she would deal with Yunluo's problem after finishing her work, but she continued to serve the next customer without paying any attention to Yunluo. Yunluo finally couldn't hold back, and because they were far away, she directly asked the Chinese guy for the complaint phone number. The Chinese guy quickly said, "Don't be angry, Yunluo will help you deal with this problem."
After that, he took the list and quickly helped Yunluo correct it. During this time, the lady did not respond at all and looked like she was still asleep. If she was not in a hurry, Yunluo would definitely call to complain about this employee, but in the end, she let it go for the sake of the Chinese guy.
However, from my experience of renting a car in Sydney, the staff here are generally not as friendly and enthusiastic as those of the first two. I wonder if living in a jungle of steel and concrete will make people indifferent and numb.
Finally, I completed the car rental formalities. After waiting in the car for a while, my friend and his group arrived, so we started to drive out of the city in two cars. Maybe it was because it was the weekend, we encountered a traffic jam when we drove out of the city. Fortunately, people drove in accordance with the rules, and there was no cutting in line like in China. Soon, we were able to drive smoothly again.
At about 1 o'clock, Yunluo and An Qingju arrived at the small town of Brooklyn. Today Australia gave Yunluo and An Qingju the most "warm" welcome. The town was full of dazzling white light. The temperature outside the car showed 44 degrees, and there was no cool breeze outside. Such high temperature weather has lasted for 5 days and reached its limit today, which is very rare in Sydney's history.
Yunluo and An Qingju came to the only restaurant in the town. From inside to outside, only the electric fans were working hard, blowing warm air that made people's skin dry. Even so, most Australians who love the sun choose to stay outside. It's admirable.
A Subaru Impreza WRX drove by, and the deep exhaust sound made Yunluo feel more energetic. Yunluo and An Qingju ordered food in the restaurant. Looking at the decorations around, the old photos hanging on the wall were telling the history of the town.
After lunch, Yunluo and An Qingju drove back a short distance and arrived at the dock where they rented a boat. Yunluo and An Qingju rented a small boat that could seat 6 or 7 people, and the canopy on it could somewhat block the strong sunlight.
The boss told Yunluo and An Qingju that the boat must be back at the dock at 4 o'clock every day. This means that Yunluo and An Qingju only have two hours to go out to sea. Looking at the hot weather, Yunluo and An Qingju are lucky to be able to endure two hours. Okay, get on the boat and set off.
Following the boss's previous instructions, Yunluo and An Qingjue sailed between the two signposts to avoid running aground. The sea area where Yunluo and An Qingjue were sailing was near the estuary, where the wind and sea were calm and relatively safe. The only thing to note was that when there were speedboats passing by on both sides, the speed of sailing should be appropriately reduced to reduce the impact of the waves stirred up.
Yunluo and An Qingju drove for about 40 minutes and decided to stop and try their luck. Yunluo planned to catch crabs with a net while the others fished. The fish caught yesterday were cut into pieces, the good parts were used as bait, and the rest were tied in the net by Yunluo as bait.
I don't know if it was because of the hot weather or the bad location chosen by Yunluo and An Qingjue, but they caught nothing whether fishing or crabbing. The only surprise came shortly after Yunluo and An Qingjue decided to return. A large group of jellyfish appeared out of nowhere, each as big as a washbasin.
I have also seen a lot of things. Seeing this scene, I calmly said one word, "Fishing!" Then a boat appeared on the sea: it kept spinning in place, and the people on the boat shouted, sometimes throwing nets, and sometimes stretching out oars. The final result was that Yunluo and An Qingju always passed by the jellyfish at the last second. They ended up with nothing.
After a while, seeing that time was running out, Yunluo learned how his friend drove the boat and rushed to the dock. The last kilometer was driven by ld, who was surprisingly skilled. The boat was under control, and with a beautiful glide into position, Yunluo and An Qingju's boat docked accurately at the dock.
We went to the store to settle the bill, which was $70 for two hours. We each had a bottle of iced drink, which finally helped us cool down. At this time, other boats came back to the dock. We looked over and saw that they had really caught 7 or 8 fish. It seems that Yunluo and An Qingju's skills are not good enough!
After a short rest, Yunluo and An Qingju began to return to the city. The highway along the way sometimes passed through the mountains, and on both sides were rocks left over from the time when the mountains were opened.
In view of the hot weather today, Yunluo and An Qingju decided to go swimming at Clovelly Beach. When they arrived at the beach, there were quite a lot of people, the parking spaces were almost full, and the beach was even more crowded. Compared with Manly, the water here was still a little turbid. Yunluo couldn't see anything with his goggles, but there were quite a few reefs and seaweeds on the seabed.
However, it is said that if you swim deeper, you can see a lot of fish, but Yunluo’s swimming skills do not allow him to move forward any further.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Yunluo and An Qingju swam until dark, and they finally felt much more refreshed. When they arrived at the parking lot, Yunluo was a little surprised by the scenery in front of him. At this time, the lights on the opposite coast were dim, and the sea in the middle was vast and deep. Couples sat on the benches to enjoy the night view. This is definitely a good place to enjoy the night view.
At the suggestion of a friend, Yunluo and An Qingjue went to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. This restaurant, called Cafe de Coral, wins with its cost-effectiveness. If you order a set meal for $35.8, you can choose 3 dishes from the menu, and then get rice, soup, and boiled chicken. Yunluo and An Qingjue also ordered some additional drinks and dishes. The total cost of the meal was $66, which was an excellent cost-effectiveness.
Today is Sunday, and the whole family decided to go to Sydney Fish Market for a good meal. My friend drove with Yunluo and LD to Hertz to return the car, then sent Yunluo and An Qingju to Sydney Fish Market, and then went back to pick up the others to join us.
There are about 26 shops in the market, scattered around the parking lot of the fish market. After Yunluo and LD walked around the market, they found that the shed near the dock was the place with the most customers, mainly concentrated in shops 1 to 12.
When visiting large supermarkets in China, Yunluo always had to look at seafood. What to buy was secondary. It seemed that only by looking around the counters would it be worthwhile. Occasionally seeing some new varieties would make people feel happy. So, how could I miss it when I came here today? I took my son to sweep it all.
The first thing I did was to find Tasmanian lobsters, just to solve the mystery left in Stanley. The final result was gratifying, and Yunluo felt like he had found money. The cheapest Tasmanian lobster was $100 per kilogram.
The expensive ones are $120 per kilogram (Yunluo and An Qingju bought lobsters at Stanley for $75 per kilogram). Of course, there are also large lobsters for $50 per kilogram, which may be varieties such as Sydney rock lobsters.
Queensland mud crabs. I once saw a post about a trip around Australia. The protagonist caught countless large mud crabs on a beach somewhere and ate them in different ways every day. It made people drool. The claws of this crab are very strong and can easily break a person's finger.
Alaskan king crab legs. King crabs are mainly distributed in Alaska, USA. They are one of the largest crabs in the world and can weigh up to 10 kilograms.
Fishing is only open for two weeks each year in the United States. Even though Alaskan crab fishermen can earn an average person's annual salary in five days, because they often encounter storms while fishing and the working conditions are harsh, this profession is said to be ranked first among the most dangerous jobs in the world.
Tuna, more than 1 meter long, and later we saw a bigger one, half of which took up a table. Tuna has a spindle-shaped body, which is suitable for fast swimming, usually at a speed of 30-50 kilometers per hour.
The maximum speed can reach 160 kilometers per hour, which is faster than the fastest animal on land. Tuna will suffocate if they stop swimming. The reason is that tuna always keeps its mouth open when swimming, allowing water to flow through its gills to breathe oxygen. Therefore, it can only swim continuously at high speed throughout its life. It does not rest even at night, but only slows down its swimming speed and reduces its metabolism. (To be continued...)
