For city children, the Riverside Beach Ranch needs no effort to win them over.
They didn't even get a chance to see the ranch itself, just this dense lotus pond, with slightly fragrant sweet flags being plucked, the freshly green yet-to-mature reeds, and Big White leading a group of ducks with majestic flair...
And then there's Guoyi, the Chinese Merganser with its ink-wash national style plumage.
Wow!
Everyone's got one hand petting big and small dogs, while the other hand snaps pictures and videos continuously with their phones, as the kids tread in the mud at the edge of the lotus pond, occasionally cheering as they find a few snails.
They were quickly collected by Qiaoqiao into a little basket, unconsciously gathering nearly half a basket.
Qin Beibei looked curiously and asked, "Brother Qiaoqiao, can you make snail noodles with these?"
Qiaoqiao looked at the basket, "I don't think snail noodles actually have snails..."
