It’s like Mexico…
Posted: February 3rd, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Uncategorized | 3 Comments »but without the margarita’s, drunken “spring breakers” and general murder and mayhem. Mexico has always been my favorite place for fun in the sun, so imagine how excited I was to find my “Chexico”.
We visited Hainan island this past weekend with friends and had the most amazing time. It’s a beautiful, large island at the southernmost tip of China. We were in Sanya, known for it’s beautiful hotels and beaches. We passed through small farming villages, fishing towns and lot’s of lush vegetation. There were animals roaming freely, a family of pot-pellied pigs, chickens, oxen, cows, etc. The most delicious fruits grown locally and fresh caught fish. The weather was warm and perfectly tropical.

My sweet Chexican
I rented a jet-ski but it’s regulation that a “staff” person ride on the back. So there’s basically a 12-year old boy with me, holding on for dear life.
Free Range
On the boat to the fishing village (it’s starting to feel a little “Apocalypse Now” if you know what I mean).
Captain on the lookout!
Fisheries
Very large squid. I will have to pass on that.
Little Chexican’s
Lunchtime!

Not at the fishing village anymore

Absolutely fascinating.
In popular media , China ONLY like to showcase its big cities but i find very little interest in them .
Its this small places like Hainan island and sanya which are far more interesting.
Thanks for sharing the pics.
By the way , i am from India….
I would love to visit India someday soon. I’m glad you like the pics, I agree with you that the small places are much more interesting. I hope to see more soon. Best to you, Marie
