It’s fascinating to see how Shanghai has changed since its portrayal in 1987’s Empire of the Sun. Whilst the Bund remains largely unchanged, the same can’t be said for the rest of the city. The skyline is quite different!

Hiking in China – exploring the Ninghai national trail system (Lands Remote) China's first national hiking system, the National Trail System – Ninghai, offers 500km of waymarked hiking trails through the mountains near Ninghai city in Zhejiang province, China. Ninghai is just 2.5 hours south of Shanghai on China's highspeed train.
Hard work but had great fun getting away from the office, and into nature on this trail.

That feeling when the web service you’re pulling data from changes their encoding, doesn’t do any testing nor informs you of the changes 🤦

The only emails I seem to receive from Apple are either invoices or to sell me a new product. As someone who has invested a lot of 💰 in Apple products, would it hurt to send the occasional email offering advice on how I can get the most out of my purchases?!

There are definitely worse ways to spend your Saturday morning/lunch. Devouring excellent food at The Commune Social in Shanghai.

We haven’t quite managed the 50km of the Ninghai Trail we intended to do, but we’re happy with the 35km or so we’ve covered. Resting our feet before catching our train later.
