That's Beijing

It is November. Nearly Christmas. Almost... slowly even the Chinese realize that Flip Flops aint suiting the weather anymore...so they heat up their feet by wearing socks in them ;)
Seriously, slowly, but definitely, it is getting winter. Not that it is already snowing like it was in my hometown in Germany a couple of days... missing the snow, though. Mh.

Luckily I was put in a somewhat more luxurious apartment complex so to enjoy the private heating regulation. You may wonder what I am talking about, ey!? I'll explain: In China, there is an official date when the government turns on the heat in buildings - which is in the middle of November. Regardless of the weather conditions - imagine!!!

Whatelse exciting happened?!
My brother will come for visit in 2 weeks, I went Paintballing, working as a 'Hippie' at the German Ball in the Kempinski, made an excursion to some malls to go shopping,...just enjoying the Beijing life :)

I then came to realise, how much better we dress nowadays :P

Hope you didn't end up with too many bruises after the paint ball showdown.
