funnest places to visit in the us: Marco Island US Coastal Tour
After leaving Panama City, we traveled along the west coast of Florida to Miami, first visiting Tampa to meet a college classmate I hadn’t seen in 40 years. He recommended several sea views on the west coast (Gulf of Mexico), and we chose Marco Island.
Marco Island is one of the Ten Thousand Islands in Collier County, Florida, a famous beach resort area. It has a large yacht marina and many luxury homes, all located by the water with each family having their own yacht.
Along the path through various tropical plant communities, the white beach gradually unfolds before you.
Along the turquoise sea, there are fine white sand beaches, with tourists everywhere enjoying the ocean view. People on the beach, whether sitting or lying down, mostly use various sun protection equipment: Florida’s sun is really too intense, and even Westerners who like to sunbathe find it a bit overwhelming.
Enjoying handsome men and beautiful women at the beach is what everyone hopes for. I give a thumbs up to everyone who confidently shows off their figure.
Water birds also appear by the sea from time to time, enjoying themselves together with the visitors.
Still enjoying favorite drinks while soaking in water, this is a way to cool off.
Playing in the water all day is probably a wish in many children’s hearts.
Charming beaches, lazy tourists, I think this is what vacation should look like. Unfortunately, we’re still rushing to see more scenery. When can we be content with quietly enjoying nature, then tourism will evolve into living.

do in paris: in Paris, experience the magic of architecture
In the eyes of 1965, Paris was an artistic collection of six great film masters. In the eyes of 2015, Paris is the fragmented memory of traversing this city for the third time. I’ve been fascinated with traveling for some time now, having visited many places, but I’ve always had a special fondness for this foreign land that I first visited. In 2009, I began my journey of traveling abroad, with Paris as my first destination. It was my first flight of more than ten hours, my first arrival in a foreign country. In the unfamiliar city, historic buildings quietly whispered their stories, while the clear streets continuously flowed with brilliant colors. That was my first glimpse of Paris. The city unfolded in its most passionate and vibrant form after being bathed in sunlight, it was ecstatic. During my honeymoon trip in 2013, I once again started from here without hesitation. It was a time when the hot summer had not yet begun, waiting for the joy of everything about to bloom after the revival of all things. The city was shrouded in a state of eager anticipation before the carnival, it was exhilarating. In the early period of the…

Visiting Pompeii, Italy: Frozen in Tragic Beauty
You can still see their appearance, the way they looked in the last second before they disappeared – residents, kettles, bread, city walls… Country: Italy Location: Southern Italy Best travel time: March to May, September to November Pompeii, also translated as “Pompei”, on August 24, 79 AD, this once-glorious ancient Roman city was instantly buried deep underground by the suddenly erupting ash from Mount Vesuvius. It wasn’t until 1748, when a farmer accidentally discovered a metal chest filled with gold and silver jewelry and ancient coins while turning soil in his vineyard, that the ancient city of Pompeii, the second largest city in the ancient Roman Empire, bustling with merchants, full of material desires and extremely luxurious, gradually reappeared before the world’s eyes. The ancient city of Pompeii preserves a large number of architectural remains and cultural artifacts from the ancient Roman Empire period, and is known as the most famous ancient city ruins in the world. Because it was buried by volcanic ash, the streets and houses in the ancient city are relatively well-preserved. The ruins of the dwellings stir one’s emotions and set the imagination wandering. The amphitheater could accommodate the entire population of Pompeii. Mount Vesuvius is…

Starting from November 2021, we’ve added a new column to introduce the recommended cocktail recipes published by the International Bartenders Association (IBA), hoping to help novice bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts! We have reached the fifth installment of the IBA (International Bartenders Association) recipe series on contemporary classic cocktails. Today we’ll discuss several cocktails that are well-known both in China and worldwide, as well as some that may appear simple in terms of ingredients but are very drinkable. Many enthusiasts in their early stages believe that cocktails with more ingredients taste better, but in reality, adding more ingredients brings higher instability, and what you might get is a cocktail of indeterminate character. NO.19 Long Island Ice Tea This cocktail is considered one of the most well-known cocktails in China. It originated in Long Island, USA, and became popular worldwide in the 1990s.
