My previous winter home, where the river meets the sea.
This was the scene one past January, a glimpse of paradise, which has now become a fond memory of the Far East.

Actually, this is a voting security feature. During public voting, only club members can read posts submitted for that contest. Since anyone reading the story is able to vote (click the Like button), we reserve these capabilities to members who SignIn. Before we implemented this security feature, people were voting multiple times and making the public voting process unfair and out of balance. To fix this, our staff finally decided to allow only members who SignIn to read the stories. Membership is free and easy, and ensures our club is safe, secure, and family-friendly!

Wow. You captured a very beautiful picture in a very nice place. It is a very calming and relaxing view, Chris. I hope I will be there someday. And I love the title.
Hi Lotchie – Yes, you are right, that resort was very calming and peaceful. It was a beautiful island where I used to relax in the winter months. I think you also have many similar beautiful islands in your country! 🙂
Hello, Chris. There are many similar beautiful islands here in my country. I wish to visit some of the places when the pandemic ends soon.
A wonderful photo, Chris. It looks just like a postcard or travel agent picture enticing us to visit an exotic location. Glad your memories are as beautiful as the photo 🙂
Thanks Sandra! Yes, some call this beautiful island the “Hawaii of China” which is quite fitting. I do miss this special place, as I spent many winters there, and yes I have many fond memories.

Absolutely gorgeous! I had no idea that anywhere in China looked like this. What a joy it must have been to winter there.
This is beautiful, Chris. I also agree with Sandra. It looks like a postcard, thanks for sharing!
Hi Melissa – Thanks for your comment! I have been out on a project, but now very nice to return to the Voice Club. Yes, this beautiful island is one of the gems of China that many westerners are not familiar with. If you look closely you can see the river flowing into the sea 🙂
Looks like paradise to me! Great job, Chris you are quite the photographer!
