A trip to the mountains

Hi,


Sunday and a good opportunity to go for hiking. Together with two of our friends (also Singaporean and Swedish), we headed towards Tiger Valley for more than 2 hours of walk along the river. The one hour car drive to get there (or to one of the other mountain spots) is worth doing again!

Paralympics

Hi!

Last night was the closing ceremony of the Paralympics. The big Olympic "party" has now come to an end. Will life in Beijing go back to normal? I think yes, gradually business and life will continue as usual.

On Saturday, all cars are allowed on the roads again. No more special traffic regulations and other regulations for construction work and so forth, at least nothing that we know of today.

Regarding the sport events, we saw some of them live. Wheelchair basketball quarterfinals at the National Indoor stadium and swimming finals at the Watercube. Take a look at the photos.

Bye, bye!
