It must have been a truly enriching experience for the Kid because I went to Beijing last year (for the first time) around November and the temperature at the Great Wall was -2 degrees centigrade. It was my first time abroad and I really enjoyed that trip. Those are beautiful pashminas, Kid, you have your parents’ taste for finer things. I remember when we went shopping in Beijing, I was advised to make tawad at 30% of the quoted price. I was so afraid na baka batuhin ako ng mga nagtitinda, but to my surprise, it worked! Kaya I brought home a couple dozen (fake) t-shirts and some scarves. Also plenty of underwear..hehehe..Hope I can go back to Beijing sometime soon.

Wow, The Kid is really in tune with her daddy’s mind, because I’d never think of fruit as a pasalubong from China, at least when I was still her age..
