On the winter solstice in 2004, I spent it with Frosty...... I was studying in New Zealand at the time, and she was a tour guide for a tour group that had been in New Zealand and had been there for a few days, including the winter solstice, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day......

However, from December 24th to 26th, the tour group will visit the South Island of New Zealand...... She was in Auckland on the day of the winter solstice, and the university where I did my Master of Management was in Hamilton, Waikato...... However, these little troubles were not enough to change my reward for her visiting me, so in order not to make her too tired, I went to Auckland to meet her after a few days of class.

Truth be told, Hamilton is not very far from Auckland...... I arrived in Auckland on the afternoon of the winter solstice and had dinner with her...... At least at that time, I didn't know if Auckland had a relatively large Chinatown, and she didn't know very well, so on the winter solstice that year, we could only eat Western food, and Western food was not the same as Chinese food, but the roast chicken was still quite delicious, so I drank some red wine with her in order not to spoil her fun......

Lingling (Blue Frost) is still missing...... It made me feel depressed, depressed, and lonely in a foreign market......

It's really hard to say if Frost can guess my mind, because as she herself once said - "The alumni circle is so big, it's not difficult to know something......"

Indeed, although Frost and I have never been in the same school or in the same grade, we went to middle school in the same city...... She was able to find my mobile phone number...... Those "big things" that "sensational" the city's alumni circle are easier for her to know, as long as she is willing to ......

Moreover, Frost's current occupation makes it easy for her to come to New Zealand to see me with the help of a tour group......

But in any case, Frost was the right time this time, and I was very impressed by it......

On that occasion, I was in Auckland for five days, and she was in Auckland on December 21 and 22, and her tour group left Auckland on the 23rd...... After that, I didn't go back to Hamilton right away, because I remembered that a childhood friend Cheng Kuan was also in Auckland at that time, and my parents and his parents had told us before we went abroad that we could see each other more when we were free in New Zealand, and I had also contacted him on the phone after arriving in New Zealand, but we never had the right opportunity to meet each other......

After the meeting, Chengkuan proposed that I leave after the 25th, and our good brothers could spend Christmas together, and I agreed...... After Christmas, on the 26th, I said goodbye to Chengkuan and returned to Hamilton.

Concentrate:

The winter solstice, also known as the day solstice, the winter festival, the sub-year, etc., has both natural and humanistic connotations, which is not only an important solar term in the 24 solar terms, but also a traditional Chinese folk festival. The winter solstice is one of the four seasons and eight festivals, which is regarded as a big festival in winter, and there is a saying that "the winter solstice is as big as the year" in ancient folk. The winter solstice customs vary from region to region, and there are differences in the content or details of the customs. In southern China, there is the custom of worshipping ancestors and feasting on the winter solstice. In northern China, there is a custom of eating dumplings on the winter solstice every year.

The winter solstice is the day with the shortest days and longest nights in the Northern Hemisphere, and the days get shorter the further north you go. Although the days on the winter solstice are short, the temperature on the winter solstice is not the lowest; It will not be very cold before the winter solstice, because there is still "accumulated heat" on the surface, and the real cold winter is after the winter solstice; Due to the great disparity in the climate of various parts of China, this astronomical climatic characteristic is obviously late for most parts of China. When the winter solstice arrives, it marks that it is about to enter the cold season, and the folk began to "count nine" to calculate the cold days (folk proverb: "the summer solstice is three Geng, and the winter solstice is counted nine").
