I have stayed in a large island here for 1 week. It was a business trip, but I could enjoy a leisure saturday. I ran along a nearby small island in the morning. As the island was so beautiful and has hiking courses, I hiked alone in the afternoon and took a lot of photos.

It was unsually warm and I was in a sweat. Fortunately, I happened to bring a pair of hot pants. As there are many foreign tourists here, not so much attention to me. Still a few men, many women and kids looked at me, probably because all of them wore long pants for autumn. Only I wore hot pants.

Some of today's photos:

On interesting thing: I had been in a nearly male mode during the week, because of the business here. As I went out today in female mode, my mind slowly shifted to female one. At the hotel room, I became suddenly enthralled by my own image in the mirror. I looked so charming to my own eyes. I tried to take a photo, but indoor photography is always disappointing:

Anyway, I feel as if I am a woman now. I just think about what I will do tonight... Just fall sleep as usual, or stroll around in the downtown?

Nice pictures, Barbie. I know the feeling of shifting into another mindset.

Thanks, Gennee.

It suddenly becomes cold here, and people worry about more spread of swine flu. Need to prepare for fall fashion.

How fortunate you are to have a petite physique and figure that allows you to wear any femme clothes you like and instantly pass.   Your lovely long hair is your own, too.   How envious I am.

Maryteresa,

Thanks, but I am not so much passable as you think. My voice and manly face. Most of women here have very round face, although some caucasian and central Asian foreign women could have a rather squred face.

I was indeed tired and fatigued at the day when I took those photos. Most of young women here have fair face, but I do not. When I am tired, my face looks older and more masculine. Now I am a little bit recovered.

And, it is relatively cold here, urging me prepare for winter fashion. From summer to winter within just a few days.

But back to the work, making me feel I become a man.

Barbie your fashion sense is impeccable and I appreciate the way you are just you, honest and normal and without judgement, it's awesome   

Thanks, Becca,

That would be my goal.

As I become busy working again, I feel that I become a man. I need leisure time to become a woman. Everybody is too busy at my age.
