Happy Hols!

End of the year, and a good time to reflect on the past year. It’s been a pretty dramatic ride. Went through a major change in my personal life and adapted to the changes this past year. Not rapidly! It was a gradual process, but I can tell you things are back to “normal.”
Met some [...]

I know, I know…Been too long since my last update…Skated last weekend, and I am not sure how many skating days are left in this year. Inline skating in Beijing remains a great sport. Except in the cold winter! Have to do more indoor exercise.
Many people have asked about the memoir I have been writing [...]

Well, it is past the last few weeks of holidays in China, and I have been very low key. Inline skated on the good sunny days and on the cloudy days spent time with some old friends and also with my computer.

It was to see a [...]

Had a lot of visitors in Beijing the past week. Always cool to show people around this city. And it takes me back to some places I had not gone for a while. A New York friend of mine’s daughter and her friend came to Beijing for the first time. I pointed them to [...]

After the 3 days off, many are sharing stories from the weekend. Let’s see. Saturday was an inline skating day. Went to Hou Hai and skated around the lakes. Was going to go to the midi festival but just felt like skating in the fresh air, so I didn’t make it this year. That night [...]
