Weather: warm, with hazeFor sake's sake: A little retail therapy goes a long way. I went in search of the Spin Ceramic shop. As you can see I found it.
I met Frikkie in Sanlitun last night and we went for dinner at Bei, one of the restaurants in the Opposite House Hotel. WOW! It is the most beautiful, minimalist space I've ever been in. The attention to detail... Mmm, can you tell I've been hanging out with an architect?
After my morning chores I headed off to Spin Ceramics. I got lost. Not badly, but it took me a while to get there. I blame Google Maps - my navigation skills couldn't possibly have anything to do with it. But it was all worth it. Good lawd the stuff in that shop is beautiful. It's modern Chinese executed with great skill and craftmanship. I could have bought everything they had on display. But we're still a one income family, so I settled for a sake porer and cups. And 2 pottery cups. And it was very reasonable, which is really good cause we have to fork out some serious cash for our tickets to VIETNAM!!! Yip, we're off to Vietnam for the Chinese New Year next year. And as luck would have it, we get to spend my birthday on the island of Phu Quoc at the Mango Bay resort. Could a girl ask for more? Probably not.
I also went to the Chinese Japan Friendship hospital today. I needed to go for a gyne check-up. I've never had so much fun during a gyne visit. Dr Goa is old enough to be my granny, but everything was funny, but in a good way.
Today was a good day.
