Although they had reached the place for boating, they didn't take a boat. Professor Shi and the other two teachers led them up a small hill, from where they could enjoy a panoramic view of the mountains and waters below, with a broad vista.
The two of them found a nice spot, and with the professor's introduction, they began a day of field sketching.
When Lu Jingqiu had come here for fun previously, she had taken many photos and had also painted several pictures at home, all of them landscapes, which she kept at home.
Today she painted a close-up view, and at times during the session, the professor would come over to point out some problems.
Lu Jingqiu benefited greatly. They had arrived after ten in the morning, and for lunch, everyone ate their own packed food.
It was almost three-thirty in the afternoon by the time they packed up to leave, and it was after six when they got back to the school.
After eating at school, Lu Jingqiu rode her bike back home.
