Hao Yun (郝云) Concert

While walk­ing through the store, I noticed the music they were play­ing was very nice. We found out it was the new album of Hao Yun (郝云), and more­over, he was com­ing for a pro­mo­tion con­cert that same after­noon! We imme­di­ately bought the album to have it auto­graphed later :-)

Climbing a Mountain

Last week­end we went out with some fam­ily and friends to climb a moun­tain and stay at a farm. Now, I’m sure Bail­ixia used to be a farm­ing town, and there used to be a farm house on the place where we stayed, but today it’s more of a party-town and the place where we stayed is more of a coun­try­side hotel.
