I finally figured out how to translate the page and post pictures. I hope you enjoyed them. Apparently the Big Red Chinese Machine has blogged my blog in China, so that's why I cannot view it from here. But at least I can post. So, today we strolled around Shanghai's business district called the Pudong. Its across the river from where we are. Its a much slower pace here and things are a little more upscale. We went to the top of the Jim Mao Tower, the tallest in Shanghai. The observation deck is a towering 88 floors up. There is a Grand Hyatt inside the tower and an atreum that is over 30 floors high. It was quite a site and offered good views of "the hell China has created" according to Colin. Shanghai is extremely large! With over 13.5 million people, it is much larger than New York City. Some have even said there are almost 20 million people. Who knows?! As for sites, there is not much to see really. The skyline is nice, but not much for history. This city really boomed in the 1930's, so compared to the rest of China it is very new. Tonight we hung out at a bar overlooking the city and enjoyed a local brew called Tiger Beer. Mark and I sat with a young guy studying in Alberta, Canada and an Aussie in his late 20's who seems to have been all over the world. He has some pretty cool stories to share. Not much going on lately, but we head to Zuhai on Wednesday. Its on mainland China in the South near the island of Macau. From there we will take a ferry to Hong Kong. It was much cheaper this way. I'll clue you in then.
