with the sun rays shining from my lovely window , the whole room instantly cannot hide its happiness , reflecting the radiance on my face , i feel something in front of my eyes so bright . All at once , it occurs to me that a new day is coming . grab my phone and watch the time ,oh , it is 10:00AM. what has happened yesterday at this time once again replays in my earmind .
flying to the train station
due to sis's working extra time on May 1st , so bro-in-law planned very ahead . we should have 3 days trave to hangzhou , sight-seeing on the spot the first day , park-playing the second day and clothes-purchasing the third day , but involving with work problem , we had to change 3 days into only one day travel and compress our desires to the least . to reduce our budget , bro booked the ticket at 6:30am on the May 1st , what happened in the following is , i suppose now , and to others , like a joke , at least can be counted as a legend story in a fairy book . to catch the earliest train , bro-in-law negociated with his alam clock ahead of time , but maybe his alam clock 's working over time always , and this time he was on strike . receiving his companion 's phone call at 5:50am , he shouted with the shocking voice "T-I-M-E is up ", and all of us sat on the bed quickly in a conditioned response 's way . rarely seeing taxi , out we rushed toward under way station . several transfering line's , i couldn't remember how long we ran on that day regardless of my dysmenorrhea , finally we reached the train station . however , to our great dismay , before we reached there, the train had left 10minutes .
killing evil time on the train
so we bought another train's tickets, all the ticket with seats has been solt out , we had no choice besides this train , or else we had to wait for another two hours . we got on the train elbowing our way and found the corridoor betwixt the two coaches a good place to stand , coz all the seats are filled with people . we went to the buffet coach . and the PIC there with the huge body size said to us , while his eyes looking down upon us , how many potions of breakfast do you want ? six out of seven people said no , thanks . and he said with eyes bursting into anger " no breakfast , no seat ". and therefore , we said we each had one . after ages---long , long wait , our breakfast served with no spoon , no chopsticks , and at the first sight of our breakfast , our appetite was badly spoiled . there is only a steam bum with several pieces of salary above , and surpringly , another bow of so-called porridge , some of us stirred it , we saw less than ten small particles of rice floating on the soup.we smiled at each other wryly and couldn't utter a word . foget mentioning , an egg in the dishes also . we each had but the egg at the cost of 15yuan for breakfast .after breakfast time , we were forced to go back to where we were before going to the buffet coach , the corriage between the two coaches . still worse , i felt unbearable pain from belly as the punishment of running strongly in order to catch the tight-scheduled train .i was almost on my knees with my eyes closed so as to easily sleep and forget that pain . it seemed that it took a century , we finally got to hangzhou .
walking out of the earth
stepped out of the train station , we bargined with the cab . coz the taxi was not allowed to reach the tourist spot but the private cars and sight-seeing buses with the extravagant fees , we didn't know for what the goverment had those strange rules and regulations , and to the reality , we had no choice to adopted to it , coz that is not in our power to make any changes but adaptations . so we decieded to take the shuttle bus and found our ways to the west lake and leifeng tower . three hours standing on the shuttle bus , we went out of it and began groping our ways. by the onsider's pointing , we went as they suggested , wow , even the bush road was too long to see the end . we were exposed to the sun ,tired and disspointed , frankly , me and sis , were exactly in desperate hope though , but taking others into account , we didn't show our feelings for fear of spoiling their fun . after walking long enough , we saw the west lake waving towards us with her warm huge waves and cool wind blowing on the lake . we were in the ecstay of joy . had a short break , we got under way .the sudi , dyke-dam was too long the see the other end , but to our disappointment , it was just a dam , and the perface was so ugly , like a centuries-old falt road , not at all like the overall picture appeared on the TV , and on the Madam White Snake either , what we saw right there was no better than what we had long expected long before , and our disappointments met the atmost downs at that instant .soon afterwards , all our hopes fell on the leifeng tower , we were longing for a surprise , so we took on the sight-seeing bus , no longer wanted to care about the cost , maybe treat all this as a way giving vent to negative feelings and anger, about half an hour's drive , we reached leifeng tower . we went in with the tickets which didn't in the least cover the value . astounishingly , there is a lift leading to the half tower . a question mark creeped up in our mind , is that the alleged leifeng tower ?
being dying to go back with the fast pace
we took the sight-seeing bus go back to the train station , the driver told us there were few stops left to the train station , but what he said was far from the truth . it took us about three hours in fact .and the bus was so bumpy with the crooked road , more likely , we couldn't say against our consciousiness , we very much enjoyed the one day trip to hangzhou , but it was kind of ordeal to us , i suppose . and the weary expressions hung on our faces.when we reached the train station , all the seat tickes were out of stock , that means , we had to stand about two hours like the way we went to hangzhou in the morning .on the way , i thought so much . i finally comprehend the the feelings " the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence ". but actually , the grass is not surely better than that in the thise side .
