Autumn has arrived in Beijing


The autumn season has slowly crept in, driving away the hot spell of summer. I notice some changes during this transition of changing season other than the declining temperature. The night arrives earlier at around 6:00 pm as compared to the normal 7:00 pm. It means a longer night hour for resting and shorter daytime activity. In these days on the road off work is already pitch dark compared to bright daylight in Summer. This change is so subtle which was not felt before back in Singapore. I started to put on more cloth and jacket to work from this week onwards. It is interesting to see new fashion from the ladies on the streets with fur wear and high heel boots, men with nice coat and jackets. But for the less fortunate, blankets and over-sized torn shirts can be seen over their body.
