Traveling to Hangzhou


Part 1 – 出发的早晨 (The Morning of Departure)

上个星期,我们一家决定去杭州旅游。 因为杭州的风景很美,所以我们都很期待。 那天早上我起得很早。 妈妈已经在厨房准备早餐了。 我们是坐高铁去的,因为高铁又快又方便。 出门的时候,天空很黑,快下雨了。 妈妈说:“快走吧,别磨蹭了!”

Part 2 – 在火车上 (On the Train)

到了火车站,人很多,什么声音都有。 我们是提前一周买的票,所以位置很好。 火车准时开了。 我坐在窗边,看着外面的田野。 妈妈拿出包子给我吃,因为我早上没吃饱,所以有点饿。 弟弟什么零食都想吃。 妈妈笑着说:“别吃太多了,小心肚子疼。”

Part 3 – 到达杭州 (Arriving in Hangzhou)

三个小时后,我们到了杭州东站。 天气很好,阳光很温暖。 我们是来杭州旅游的,也是来看西湖的。 到了酒店,我们先放下行李。 前台小姐什么事情都很清楚。 她告诉我们下午可以去西湖坐船。

Part 4 – 西湖的下午 (Afternoon at West Lake)

因为天气好,所以湖面很平静。 我们坐在船上,看着远处的山。 弟弟快睡着了。 妈妈说:“别睡了,等会儿还有好玩的呢。” 湖边有很多花,什么颜色都有。 我们拍了很多照片,是用新的相机拍的。

Part 5 – 晚上的美食 (Evening Food)

傍晚我们去了河边的夜市。 因为肚子很饿,所以我们先找了家餐厅。 这里的菜什么味道都有。 我点了西湖醋鱼,是朋友推荐的。 妈妈点了龙井虾仁,是为了尝尝杭州的特色。 弟弟一直吃甜点,妈妈说:“别吃了,留点肚子吃水果。”

Part 6 – 回程 (The Return)

第二天早上,天空很亮,快出太阳了。 因为今天要回家,所以我们早早起床。 我们是打车去火车站的。 司机是杭州本地人,对这座城市什么地方都熟悉。 他一路给我们介绍景点。 火车开动的时候,我有点不舍。 因为这次旅行很开心,所以我希望以后还能来。
