  • Snow

    Posted on Sunday November 1st, 2009 at 08:25 in travel, my stuff

    It did snow here today, more than I’ve ever seen except when I’ve been to a ski field.  Here’s what I could see out of my hotel room window. (I know, I know … for Northern Hemisphere people snow is no big deal, but for Au...

    Its about to turn cold here in Beijing.  In fact it might even snow tomorrow.  So today was time to take advantage of what might be one of the last days of nice autumn weather in my time here, by taking a long walk around the Shichahai area, with i...

    So far in my first week in Beijing, I’ve eaten plenty of good and cheap food.  Beijing duck (and a whole lot of other food) one night, all for just over $20 a person.  A team dinner last night at a restaurant in a hutong off XinJieKou, select...
