Beautiful Sunday Dragon Boat Festival in Dalian China

in #beautifulsunday • 5 years ago

It was such a perfect day for a picnic on the north shore in Dalian.


The Weather was warm, not too hot with a strong breeze keeping us cool. Though I did manage to get a wicked sunburn on my neck.

Some great homemade food, roast lamb.

When we arrived the tide was out and sandy beach stretched out so far that I was at least 50 meters from the shoreline and the water was still only slightly above my knees. It was so warm, it was like having a bath nothing like I expected from the Bohai sea.

After a few hours the tide came in and sandy beach disappeared and the waves got bigger. What was once up to my knees would now be up my waist. Such a wonderful day with my friends and I got to make some new ones too.

Met this adorable puppy.

It was truly a beautiful day, no complaints. Wish everyday could be a day like today but only one person was missing, next time they won't be.

      There was also ZongZi, the rice dumplings they serve this holiday. I was gifted a bunch the day before.

      They were delicious, these ones had a fig inside but I prefer the ones with pork.
