Exploring outside of Xiamen

During the time Logan and Alicia were visiting us we decided to take a day to explore outside of Xiamen. Our friend knew of a guy with a boat, we rented his boat for the day and spent the day out on the water.

All of us on the boat

A large tourist boat

The tiny deserted island we traveled to. Our driver dropped us off there  for a few hours where we ate lunch and explore.

The fishing village

People live in these little cabins during the warm months to raise fish and oysters. There are electrical wires hanging from cabin to cabin to provide electricity. 

You had to walk along the logs to get around

We got to know a family who lived there. They invited us in where we shared some tea and shared stories with us about whats its like living out there.

This is the bathroom I used... Yes, its a trap door that drops out into the ocean
