People

Here is an interesting thought; there is something very reassuring to knowing that whenever and wherever you go there are people - lots of people - working, playing, eating, cooking, buying, selling and doing everything else making us an active part of society. Beijing, unlike any other place I have been, is the definition of hyper-active. Last Saturday, after dinner around 11pm, there was an armada of people constructing a new skyscraper. Tonight, at 10pm on Friday, there is a crew of about 100 strong refurbishing the building across the street. You can see the welding almost anytime at night...sparks of a city on the move ;-)
