My first official visit to Beida

My first official visit to Beida
It was a very warm day (30C) on my arrival, May 2nd, 2012. Green way of (old) life...(I can recall the smell of the sun at night, after such an airing under the bright Sun, during my childhood.) Old and New (around 9am on May 3rd) Spring is here... (As song as I stepp ...

Morning traffic in Hangzhou (May 2nd, 2012)
Coming out of the Cultural Plaza Hotel of Zhejiang at 8 am on "Monday," the first day of work after May Day. I was amazed by the solid wall of buses (on a one way street with one lane for buses and the rest for cars going the opposite direction as the buses). Behind the buses were 4-5 lanes of cars ...

I finally got up the courage to take a bus yesterday, without knowing much, such as the cost. Luckily, I can read: The sign on the bus said "1.50." I was so proud of reducing my carbon footprint, and so confident that I knew my way, I kept on walking until the road ended in front of me To be prep ...

Is a picture really worth a thousand words? (with a song)
Taken from the 21st (non-smoking) floor of the Cultural Plaza Hotel of Zhejiang in Hangzhou, at 2pm on April 30, 2012 . Fog, or smog? The weather bureau said it was fog. I found a song that matches the photo. Don't listen to it if you have a weak heart! Gloomy Sunday ...

枇杷的形狀 (Shape of loquat)
The only shape of loquat in my memory was round (and small), but I never questioned why it's called 枇 杷 (pipa; the same pronunciation as a Chinese music instrument). This time, I saw big elongated loquat (枇 杷) at Hangzhou Airport, and was wondering if it's GM food. Well, I bought three ...

A non-smoking room is not good enough...
2012-4-27 22:22
I can smell the cigarette (smell) coming in from the hall way... Even though the weather is cool, I have to turn on the A/C and hope it will make the smell less annoy.

The sky is falling (in Xiamen)...

I like the sound, but I hope it will stop at some point, or I will be soaked.

I will have to work, work, and no play in Xiamen
2012-4-25 20:03
It started to pour as soon as we returned from lunch. So Xiamen is soaked by today's rain. The weather forecast says it will rain for the next two days. On the other hand, I will be more motivated to come back since I want to SEE Xiamen and its surroundings.

I am having a bad hair day...
热度 3 2012-4-24 09:01
This is only about hair. The humidity (湿度) is 87% in Xiamen, while it's only 54% in Honolulu. My short hair looks terrible, and I need to turn on the A/C to rid off some moisture in the hotel room
