A Good Morning and Beijing Shop Fronts

Posted by on Dec 5, 2011 | 1 comment

It was another regular workday as I scoot-ed my way to work. As I came to a stop at a junction, a perky and rousing music caught my ears. It was coming out of a shop called 北京同仁堂 (A popular Chinese medicine shop). The staff had ‘fall-in’ outside the shop. From afar, they seem to be flinging their hands and feet in an almost 3/4 hearted unison. I couldn’t help but stare and wonder in awe: just why are they doing what seemed to be morning exercise, in front of a major road junction, complete with flyover and expressway, amidst the horn orchestra of Beijing’s Traffic.

The light turned green and I humbly scoot-ed away, wondering when was the last time I exercised.

  1. I saw staff from the real estate company on the first level of my office building doing the same!
