I saw a picture story in my childhood in which it was mentioned that the equator is a bright metal belt floating on the sea, which needs to be wiped constantly. When I conceived those wonderful islands that didn't exist from Ye Fei's perspective, what I thought of was the scene of polishing the equator in the vast ocean.
Because the age is too old, the other content of the story has long been unremembered, but this scene is as real in memory as common sense in geography class.
As it is, the feeling that dreams and reality are inseparable.
For people living far inland, the colorful and clear coral sea like colored glaze is also a dreamlike existence. It is the Paradise of Eden that appears on posters and computer desktops. However, the original intention of "Chihiro Chihiro" is not to tell a romantic encounter during the journey, but to let everyone see through the protagonist's experience the helpless joys and sorrows behind the paradise island life.
No matter where you live, there are fortunes and misfortunes. Ye Fei and Chen Jiajun are people who will not be overthrown by life, but people who firmly believe in the future and strive for it. And they are also lucky, with sufficient financial resources and ability to guarantee. For most people, the reality may be harder and colder. Compared with Song Xi's cynicism, Scar's compromise, Jasmine's sadness, and Chloe's helpless departure, Ye Fei and Chen Jiajun already had great luck. This is my greatest goodwill and deepest blessing to those who pursue the dream of an island.
Life is not a work of art. Most of the unsatisfactory encounters can not be solved by just walking away. It just helps you see a wider world. To find adventure and freshness, you don’t have to go to new places to meet new people. It's about making changes in your own life.

Watching a whale shark is extremely difficult to anticipate, and it takes more luck than seeing a manta ray.
I have seen whale sharks twice in the sea. The first time was around the Mid-Autumn Festival of a certain year. There was no expectation at the time. Turning around an underwater cliff, a huge monster suddenly appeared in front of him. It didn't rush and swim with us for more than ten minutes. The beauty is breathtaking. Unfortunately, none of the divers on the ship brought cameras. But that day, I saw a golden full moon rising from the sea, which was so beautiful.
I chatted with a local tour guide with a snorkeling tour group. He showed me the video. It was at the place where everyone usually snorkeled. The maximum water depth was 12 meters. A whale shark and the snorkeling group played for ten to twenty minutes. The people diving deep didn't see it. Another girl saw manta rays and whale sharks while learning to dive. We all said that she can just hang up her (diving) boots.
There is always a point of luck, and it will suddenly appear at some point.
However, the whale sharks cruising in the waters of our country seem to be not so lucky. As I was writing this postscript, a whale shark appeared near an oil platform somewhere. Within a few days, there was news that a large fish was caught and made into fish fat. Similar reports are not uncommon in China. Not to mention the whale shark itself is a docile and elegant giant in the sea, how cruel fishing is; more importantly, the whale shark is listed in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, and its management should refer to the national secondary key protected animals. Even if it is salvaged after death, it cannot be handled without authorization.
Fortunately, the times are progressing after all, and the news also mentioned that traffickers will be punished in accordance with the law. You should know that a few years ago, there was a fake news about the so-called "pond eating people" under the guise of pictures of whale sharks. Later, the news of whale shark fishing also began to mention the intervention of the fishery authorities.
In addition, some tourist areas will keep or feed whale sharks in the sea, and some aquariums will breed whale sharks. Although it provides more people with the opportunity to see them in person, I personally disagree. Scientists are not clear about the whale shark’s living habits, migration routes, etc., so if they change their life rules, the consequences are unknown, and they even affect the development of the population.
Therefore, it is especially precious to see it in the natural state.
The public's awareness of protection is gradually awakening, and I don't need to explain to others why I should not eat shark fin as I did a few years ago. In addition to shark fins, other marine biological products, such as clams, hawksbills, and corals, need to be purchased carefully. Some of them are endangered species, and some of them have caused immeasurable damage to the seabed environment during the collection process. Don't believe the so-called "we sell fossils". When we have realized that we need to protect forests, grasslands, wetlands, rivers, etc. on land, marine protection actually has the same or more urgent importance.

I must say to everyone who is traveling, pay attention to safety, pay attention to safety, and pay attention to safety!
As a backpacker for many years, traveling is generally a safe thing. However, try not to go to remote places with few people, especially at night. You don’t know how to do this in your own city. Why should you challenge your own safety when you are away from home
When the article was serialized on the Internet, a reader asked: "A girl who can't swim and is planning to go diving on annual vacation drifts by. Is there any precautions?" My answer is, learn to swim first.
It seems logical that there is nothing wrong with the view that "you can learn to dive if you can't swim". Take a similar example, "You can drive away without a seat belt." Of course, why not? But, will everyone do this
I know a few people who can't swim and learn to dive. Even afterwards, they learn to swim easily and have very good water quality. But I have seen more students who don’t know how to swim. They were extremely nervous for the first time or in the experience class, and then took a long time to adjust their mentality. Unfortunately, the time of a trip is limited, so time and money were wasted in vain; or I felt scared. Therefore, I think I have nothing to do with diving; there are even those who are in danger like a fish.
How do you know if you are the former or the latter? Everyone's situation is very different. To be on the safe side, no one should use themselves as a guinea pig. Therefore, instead of spending precious vacations, money, or even safety for this attempt, it is better to enroll in a swimming class, practice hard before going to the beach, learn to adapt to water, and learn to relax. After all, this is the best way to prepare.
In addition, snorkeling is more dangerous than swimming or deep diving. In recent years, the accident rate of Chinese tourists is very high. Please keep the alarm bells ringing and don't take it lightly just because you have a snorkel and life jacket.
4. A section of Coleridge’s poem "Khubilai Khan" is quoted in the text. I first heard it in the movie "Deathing Abyss". In the narration, the boy swims from the underwater cave to the sea. He feels it is fantastic and pays tribute to it.
5. There are many interesting facts and imaginations about the island, which cannot be written in the article one by one. Leave it to a certain day, and you can explore it by yourself, the island that belongs to you.
