This morning after spending some time with XC at breakfast while she was doing some homework, I met up with JD for the first time in a about a month.

She took to to another shopping area of the city, including a big bookshop that had a mirrored ceiling making it seem even larger. 

One fantastic thing about Hangzhou is the plants.  Beginning of November and the trees are still green and flowers on the rose bushes.

After a Starbucks we had some fun “rolling around” in a rather strange contraption that had only two wheels.  I’m not sure how the thing stays upright.

After this crazy time, JD took me to her office to show me where she works.
