The Origin of the 1238th Festival



You can borrow snorkeling equipment from the water sports center on Sam Po Island, but these things are not expensive. For hygiene reasons, you can just buy them all at Decathlon. Wedding dress and small dress: Maldives is picturesque and a good place to take wedding photos, so it’s a good idea to bring a wedding dress and small dress, and you can also bring a bouquet.

Don't worry about no one to help you take photos, a tripod and a remote shutter release cable can easily solve the problem. Shoes: Crocs hole shoes + slippers that can be used for treading water are ok. Others: sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, common medicines (cold medicine, anti-diarrhea medicine, mosquito repellent, etc.), inflatable pillow (it's also good to put under your head when soaking in the pool).

Note: Maldives is 3 hours behind Beijing time. Sockets are in British standard. Fishing is prohibited in the island resort, and picking of corals is not allowed. Protecting the environment is the top priority. In addition, Maldives is a Muslim country, so pork products or alcohol cannot be imported. After nearly two hours of cruising on the sea, An Chuyu and Yunluo arrived at the island that belonged to An Chuyu and Yunluo.

The black man on the island greeted An Chuyu and Yunluo at the dock, holding cold soft drinks and clean wet towels. They wiped off the dust on their faces and took a sip of the sweet and sour drink. Ah, the wonderful four days and four nights began. After filling out the forms in the hotel lobby, the Chinese receptionist on the island gave some precautions.

After connecting my phone to the wireless network on the island, I picked up the room key and, led by Xiao Hei, arrived at my room. The first two days were a water house, but the moment I opened the door, the most beautiful sea in the world was right in front of me, dream true... It was already noon, and it was afternoon in China, so I sent QQ and WeChat messages to my parents to let them know I was safe.

After eating some snacks I brought with me, I took a shower, changed into a beautiful beach dress, and sat on the steps leading to the beach on the balcony. I stared into the distance in a daze. People who have been to Maldives say that the scenery in Maldives looks the same as if you took a photo with a SLR and photoshopped it. An Chuyu believed it. The balcony in front of An Chuyu and Yunluo was gradually blue.

Water blue, light blue, dark blue, blue-black. Listening to the sound of the waves and feeling the cool sea breeze, I took a nice nap with Yunluo. After the nap, I went to the island with Yunluo. I saw a stranded boss fish on the pier, and there were one or two colorful fish next to the boss fish. The water houses in Safely are symmetrically distributed.

The water house on the left in the picture below can see the beautiful sunset. The water house on the right can see the sunrise, but to be honest, the sunset is really super beautiful, and the sunrise is rarely seen. I saw the sunrise on the third morning of the four days on the island. There were clouds in the mornings at other times. At the end of the water house, the pier leads directly to the sea, and opposite is an undeveloped island.

There are many seagulls here. The wind is very strong. It messed up my hair and blew away all distractions. There was only the cool sea breeze between heaven and earth... After staying at the beach for a while, I walked around the island. After the walk, I found that Safari Island is very small. It only takes 20 minutes to walk around it slowly. It is a relatively new island, so the facilities on the island are very new.

The sea water was very clean and blue. There were not many people, just the companions who went to the island together. Except for Shuai and Ranran, who were the ones that An Chuyu and Yunluo had agreed to go together, An Chuyu and Yunluo had never met the others. After visiting the island, I returned to the room to change clothes and prepared to go to dinner with Shuai Shuai's family. The pier leading to the restaurant forked to the left and right.

The small restaurant on the left is more expensive for ordering, and the big restaurant on the right is a buffet. There are a lot of people, and An Chuyu and Yun Luo's free tour includes a buffet. The restaurant has many kinds of food, covering the cuisine of most countries, including Western food and Chinese food. Desserts, fruits, barbecue... There are many, many, and there are different themes every day.

The theme is either seafood or barbecue. The best ones I've eaten are roasted lamb legs, fried steak, and fried seafood noodles... I'm still drooling when I think about it now, there are so many pineapples and papayas. It suits An Chuyu and Yunluo's taste very well. An Chuyu and Yunluo eat a lot at every meal, and of course they never waste anything. They eat as much as they can.

An Chuyu's current weight is the same as the one he gained weight at that time, and he has never lost it, woohoo... After dinner, he looked at the night view on the island and took a few photos. In fact, he was very sleepy at that time. He did not sleep well and the time for dinner was equivalent to 9 o'clock in China. After dinner, he wandered around again and it was already the middle of the night in China.

When I passed the wooden pier, I looked at the dark sea in the distance and felt very scary... Wow, the sea breeze perfectly showed An Chuyu's big face... Tsk tsk, in the dark night, there are lights in the woods. I saw something running in the woods and got scared. I walked closer and found that it was a few hermit crabs. They were so cute. I teased them for a long time and finally let them go.

It was really scary... I was really afraid that the sea breeze would blow An Chuyu into the sea... I returned to the room, looked at the dark sea outside the balcony, listened to the no longer beautiful sound of the wind, and imagined many scenes in my mind, including scenes from various disaster and horror movies. I closed the curtains, fell on the bed, and fell asleep in a short while.

Day 3: Honeymoon Night Yunluo got up early, took out An Chuyu and Yunluo's snorkeling equipment, and put a waterproof cover on the camera. In fact, he went into the sea yesterday and took a few underwater photos, but none of them were meaningful. Ten minutes later, he ran back to show An Chuyu the photos and found that his thighs were already tanned. He said he would not go down to play no matter what.

The ultraviolet rays in Maldives are really strong. This morning, the stranded boss fish appeared next to the stairs of An Chuyu and Yun Luo's water house. There were two beautiful colorful fish beside it. An Chuyu wondered if these small fish were the legendary cleaning doctors who ate the parasites and dirt on the big fish?

An Chuyu and Yunluo are both landlubbers. Although the water under the water house is up to their buttocks, because of the wind and waves, they still have to hold the wooden railing of the water house with one hand and hold the camera with the other hand with their buttocks sticking out. The pose is super funny. In the morning, we took a lot of underwater photos, but because of the strong wind and waves and the lack of direct sunlight, the water is turbid.

None of them are good, so I'll post a bad picture to let you compare the changes in underwater photos of An Chuyu and Yunluo after they learned to swim in the following days. After taking a bunch of failed photos, I took a shower and prepared to go to breakfast. I walked and stopped with the Shuai family, taking pictures, and walked to the restaurant.

The picture below shows the Safari Island from the water house. It is small but lush. On the way to dinner, next to the wooden pier, there is still the stranded boss fish and its guard. The island is full of thick and ancient rattan trees. Xiao Hei directly tied the flower pot to the rattan, so cute. The whole view of the restaurant during the day The wooden trestle leading to the restaurant, with a row of coconut trees in the background.

The water tank on the right is a water pitcher and a large wooden spoon for washing feet that can be found on the islands of Maldives. In the following days, An Chuyu and Yun Luo rarely wore shoes on the island and walked barefoot. Sometimes, An Chuyu and Yun Luo also carried their shoes when walking outside like Xiao Hei, and put them on when they reached the hall or entered the house.

This prevents too much sand from being brought into the room. The buffet breakfast in the restaurant is still great, with fried pasta, fried eggs, grilled sausages, various desserts, various juices, and various fruits. . . While eating, a pigeon was walking around outside. An Chuyu and Yunluo fed it bread and waffles, and it ate a lot.

When Xiao Hei, who served An Chuyu and Yunluo, came over, he jokingly said that this was his pigeon, "Oh, itsmybaby." I don't know if it's true or not. After dinner, just walked out the door. I saw a big squid, it's really a master of transformation. By the third photo, it had transformed into a big stone in the water.

Because Shuai is a good swimmer and An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two are poor swimmers, Shuai plans to teach them how to swim before going out to snorkel on the third day after arriving on the island. After dinner, An Chuyu and Yunluo go to the activity center on the island together, and Shuai and Ranran prepare to rent life jackets and snorkeling equipment.

Actually, there are life jackets in the water house. But they are the ordinary orange ones. The life jackets rented on the island are vest-style and safer. An Chuyu and Yunluo had bought all the snorkeling equipment including snorkeling shoes online before they came. Ranran and his friends rented snorkeling equipment for $10 per day, and the life jackets were $8.

The house in the distance in the picture below is where you can rent snorkeling equipment. On the way to rent clothes, I felt that the sun was particularly good today. So An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two took some photos. They really took photos wherever they went. I felt that this bird was very cute and stupid. On the way to rent snorkeling equipment, I saw a water sports center.

An Chuyu and Yunluo thought they rented it here at first, but after a tour, Xiao Hei took out a price list with prices for banana boats, paragliding, etc. Later, Xiao Hei pointed to the front and said that snorkeling equipment was rented there, so An Chuyu and Yunluo walked forward again. The prices of water sports are relatively expensive.

There were also all-inclusive packages. At that time, a Chinese tourist went to negotiate with Xiao Hei, saying that he wanted to cancel the all-inclusive package for going into the sea because he had been scratched on his leg by coral while snorkeling yesterday and could not touch the sea water again. After renting the equipment, An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two returned home and prepared to snorkel at their doorstep.

The picture below shows the snorkeling equipment that An Chuyu and Yunluo brought from home. The picture below shows the water lily pond where the water house and the island meet. It is more convenient to snorkel at home. An Chuyu, Yunluo and Shuai just happened to live next door. After changing clothes at home, An Chuyu and Yunluo went into the sea together. An Chuyu and Yunluo both stuck their butts into the water, and their postures were super ugly.

A French couple had already swam out of the shallow sea for snorkeling. They were floating above the farthest coral reef to see more beautiful fish and corals. An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two were in the sea at their doorstep and did not dare to go into the coral reef because the corals were very sharp and could easily scratch the skin, so in addition to goggles, a snorkel and a diving suit were necessary.

Diving gloves and socks are also necessary, remember. There is a lot of sand in the shallow sea, and the water was turbid when An Chuyu and Yunluo stepped in, so the photos they took were not very clear, but Yunluo really tried his best. This little fish has always been beside Yunluo's legs, and it swims with Yunluo wherever he goes.

The ultraviolet rays are very strong. After getting into the water today, the color of An Chuyu and Yunluo's butts is different from other places. An Chuyu and Yunluo are wearing anti-ultraviolet diving suits!!! Purple corals, many broken corals on the ground. An Chuyu thinks they must have been destroyed when the water house was built. The corals are really beautiful.

There were many schools of fish, allowing An Chuyu and Yunluo to watch the fish and take care of them. Ran Ran was already able to wear a life jacket for snorkeling, and Shuai stayed by her side the whole time, which was so considerate. After more than an hour of snorkeling, it was time for Yunluo to take a photo of An Chuyu after taking a shower, changing clothes, and taking a camera.

Wow, after taking the photos, I went back to take a nap in the sea breeze. I don't know why, but now I get tired easily when I go out. I ran out in the evening to watch the sunset, but it seems that the weather is still not good today, so An Chuyu and Yunluo didn't see the beautiful sunset. I made a reservation for a honeymoon meal tonight.

After sunset, I went back to rest with Yunluo for a while and prepared to go to the honeymoon dinner in advance. The night before, Xiaohei and An Chuyu decided whether to have the honeymoon dinner at the beach or in the restaurant. An Chuyu had read a review saying that there was only one candle at the beach, it was dark, and after eating the honeymoon dinner, you couldn't go to the restaurant to eat at the buffet. An Chuyu and his wife had a big appetite.

An Chuyu said that An Chuyu was eating in the restaurant, and Xiao Hei also told An Chuyu that if he was not full after the meal, he could choose something he liked to eat. Sitting at An Chuyu and Yunluo's table, after seeing the layout of the table, he felt that Xiao Hei, who was in charge of An Chuyu and Yunluo's table, was really attentive. He observed that An Chuyu had been sitting on the right side of the table for the past two days.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

So he put a flower on An Chuyu's napkin. So sweet, Xiao Hei said you are so beautiful tonight and put the flower on An Chuyu's napkin on An Chuyu's head. He took the initiative to ask to take a photo with An Chuyu. An Chuyu thought he was very good at taking photos, which must be the photography experience he accumulated from helping others take photos, haha.

After the photoshoot, An Chuyu gave him a tip of one dollar because he was very satisfied with the photos. After dinner, he wandered around and returned to the room to see An Chuyu and Yunluo's honeymoon bed. It was great, even sleeping was so romantic. There was also a letter on the bed. The content of the letter was that An Chuyu and Yunluo needed to move to the sand house after breakfast tomorrow morning.

I have to leave the water house. I am so reluctant to leave. Day 4: Learn to swim and snorkel near the sea. I went to have breakfast early this morning. After breakfast, I changed to the sand house. I found that the sand house is also good. The facilities in the house are exactly the same as those in the water house. The difference is that now it is not on the sea but on the beach. There are lounge chairs in front of the door.

Looking from the woods to the sea in the distance, I suddenly felt that I had found the real feeling of vacation in front of the sand house. Because the travel notes I read about Maldives before were all photos of water houses, so when I lived in a water house, it felt unreal. Now I finally got into the state. After changing rooms, I found that the swimming pool was not far behind An Chuyu and Yunluo's room.

Then An Chuyu called Yunluo to the swimming pool to take underwater photos, and then the miserable morning began. . . . The water in the swimming pool was very cold in the morning, and the foreigners did not swim here. They all swam in the swimming pool and drank beverages in the afternoon. When there was no one, An Chuyu was relaxed, but he could not swim at all.

Not to mention how much water An Chuyu drank, she almost drowned herself. In the end, all the photos were hideous, and she couldn't even open her eyes in the water... Woohoo, in the end, the photos that can be seen have no head... What does it mean to know shame and then be brave? An Chuyu has been deeply upset for several days because he can't swim.

This afternoon Shuai planned to teach An Chuyu and Yunluo how to swim. Shuai was great. After more than two hours, An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two could swim. They still couldn't breathe, but it was great. They had breathing tubes when snorkeling, so there was no problem at all. They were really happy. An Chuyu and Yunluo swam until the evening without realizing it.

This afternoon, I got myself tanned several degrees in the swimming pool. This evening, I saw a beautiful sunset in front of the sand house. You can see An Chuyu's skin color. An Chuyu and Yunluo and the other four friends are almost turning black. But it was a very meaningful day!

Today is Friday, and there is a live show in the small restaurant next to the buffet restaurant in the evening. A band is playing. After dinner, An Chuyu, Yunluo and the other two used the wifi near the swimming pool for a while and then went to watch the band's performance. They ordered a cocktail, which they finished with difficulty. It was really strong in taste.

I was particularly touched when watching the live show. The foreigners were interacting with the singers and requesting songs. Of course, they were definitely better at communicating in English than An Chuyu and Yun Luobang, and they were all English songs. The foreigners could easily sing along with the lead singer. Near the halftime, the foreigners requested a fast song, and not long after the song started, many foreigners stood up and danced along with the music.

And they danced very well, very relaxed and naturally. There were a few big sisters from China who wanted to dance, but they couldn't let go. An Chuyu was not used to this kind of occasion and didn't usually go to nightclubs. The one she danced was belly dance. An Chuyu and Yunluo just sat there obediently watching others dance, but when it came to the chorus, An Chuyu and Yunluo sang along loudly.

An Chuyu likes this feeling, the casual and natural feeling. On the first day in the sand house, he still slept soundly. Day 5: The most beautiful sunrise deep sea snorkeling Yunluo woke up early again in the morning, and An Chuyu still stayed in bed and wanted to sleep a little longer. He went out for a while and ran back to say that there was morning glow outside and the sunrise was about to start.

He urged An Chuyu to get up quickly. Although he often lied to An Chuyu, this time An Chuyu believed him. After quickly changing clothes, she ran to the pier of the water house with him. The sky in the distance was not very beautiful, but the beauty of the sky during the waiting made An Chuyu ecstatic.

An Chuyu and the Maldives sea bathed in the bright sunshine...After taking photos, they went to the water house to find Ranran and the others. Ranran said that she brought a wedding dress and a formal dress when she came. An Chuyu also insisted on bringing them. In the end, the wedding dress was too thick with 10 or 20 layers, so she gave up. It happened that this time, with Ranran's clothes, An Chuyu's wedding dress dream came true. (To be continued...)
