Still, it’s fun to see the Times validate the charm of someplace that we visited during our trip to Yunnan.

Beijing also was pretty hot though. Beijing is a lot like Boston-area weather (except less variable) only, hotter. So hotter summers, and milder winters, if by a little. So this September started very hot, and now is more acceptable - today I was able to wear jeans, etc. Yunnan was mountainous as well, so at night it got a bunch chillier sometimes. But pretty nice when we were there! So far things have not been too humid here in Beijing - in Yunnan, it was sometimes rather humid, but was mostly just on the hot side.
