中国航海日

中 = 丨 + 口 : Mnemonic symbol: a dart board, because you always try to hit the center.

Julian Giant Squid (zhu-) is throwing dinosaur bones (丨) as darts on a dart board in front of the engine ((e)ng1). To make it a bit more difficult he's throwing mandarins (口) into the air as well and skewers them up right in the center (中 is a mandarin skewered on a dinosaur bone) in mid flight with the dinosaur bones. He's still able to consistently hit the center (中) of the dart board.

国 = 囗 + 玉 : Mnemonic symbol: a nation's flag. Let's say the Chinese flag.

In the observatory's kitchen (o2) Gitta Giraffe (gu) is practising her ballet performance. She got a whole crate (囗) full of jade bracelets (玉) and flags (国) and fixed one flag to each jade bracelet. This makes a perfect combination for throwing the ring with the flag waving behind it and catching the ring again after a few pirouettes.

航 = 亢 + 舟 : Hamlet (h) decided to run away to sea 13 years ago. Now, having sailed (航) the seven seas, he's an accomplished captain and looking out of his yellow submarine (舟) wearing a turtleneck sweater (亢) in the anglepod's kitchen (ang2).

海 = 每 + 氵 : Due to the runaway greenhouse effect, the oceans have risen and the airplane has been flooded. To do his daily workout, Hamlet has to do a handstand on two water bottles and do his push-ups this way.

日 = 囗 + 一 : Robinson Crusoe (r) is hiding from the sun (日) in an enclosure (囗) full of flutes (一) in the space station's bathroom (Ø4).
