Cocktail anybody? Frikkie concocted a new drink for us - the Beijing Tonic. Stolly vodka is only RMB55 a bottle, so how could we not put it to good use?

Our day started off with all kinds of plans - should be go to the Temple of Heaven, Tianamen Square? So many possibilities. The thin about living in a new city is that you sometime feel compelled to do all the touristy things, but then you think: Hey, I'm going to be here for a while, so what's the rush?
So, instead of doing anything, we did absolutely nothing. Frikkie made lunch and cocktails, I read my new book, Journey to the West. It's a Chinese Classic and I'm really getting into it. Right now I'm finding out where the Monkey King comes from.

Today is my one month Beijing anniversary and Frikkie's two month. I can't believe it's only been four weeks.
