Apple Picking

Went apple picking with HT and Jane, at a town outside of Beijing. The normal journey should take around 40mins but it took 1hr 40mins that Sunday afternoon. Not much daylight left for apple picking but we did well.
Apple prices are at historic high this season due to poorer harvest, but the orchards around Beijing never need to sell their apples the traditional ways: wholesalers/markets. These orchards around Beijing cater to Beijing residents wanting to pick their own, at prices even higher than supermarket prices.
