It might look like a cool, overcast day, but don't be deceived. The UV rays are going crazy and the sun creates a glare that makes shades or a hat essential. Edie and I managed an hour an a half in the park (most of that spent in the trees) before retreating to the house, wet with sweat. She couldn't even be tempted by a boat trip, which was just as well because I didn't have the energy for rowing. There's not much else to report from balmy Beijing. While the rest of the household had a sensible siesta, Edie and I practised reading and writing, followed by some papercraft activities. Old habits die hard.
