#52 trip

I love travelling, seeing different places and learning different cultures. I have been to lot of famous places like Vegas, Niagara Falls, DC, New York, etc. They give me different feelings of America but they are all very fascinating.  However, the most unforgettable trip I have taken is the cruise trip around China. It was a summer in 2009, my host family was trying to visit me in China and they decided to go on the cruise. Since I have never gone on the cruise trip before, I was so excited to go with them even though it was a trip to China.

We first stayed in a five-star hotel in Shanghai which has 88 floors and the view of the room was great. After spending two days in Shanghai, we flew to Wuhan and went on the boat. The boat was not really big; however, it was a quite cute and cozy four-floor ship. There were quite a few shopping areas to go and a theater room, which was really nice. During the six days in the boat, we passed by a lot of cities and had a great time. What’s more exciting, on the third day of the cruise, we saw thewhole solar eclipse on the boat, which could not be seen until 2035. After the cruise, we flew to our destiny Beijing and enjoyed a fantastic Beijing Opera show.

I have to say that it was the most exciting and unforgettable trip I have ever taken. I got to a lot of places that I didn’t have a chance to see before, and I was also lucky enough to see the whole solar eclipse on the boat.
