Autumn

Cloudy morning
Tomorrow is the Mid Autumn Festival ... it doesn't coincide with the jewish feast of Sukkoth this year because they have inserted an extra month into the lunar calendar. It won't be anything special as we chinese are a very small minority. And anyway the Sabbath begins in the evening so everything shuts done and there is nowhere to go.

The weather is turning colder by the day and I'm wearing a hoodie jacket every morning on my way to Ivrea. And the dew is heavy. It's autumn for sure.

Several neighboring arabs came to speak with me separately yesterday. Much as they watch my back and show concern, there's no guarantee for my safety anymore.
