Greetings from Shanghai! I'm here for a week, visiting friends and sightseeing. I didn't think my room at the Green Tree Inn had WiFi, but here we are.
I arrived yesterday at 6pm and was met at Pudong airport by my friend Sam. We caught a MagLev (literally 'Magnetic Levitation') train into the city - 301km/h - and then she and her husband Paul kindly took me to dinner at a very stylish little restaurant. We had a 'hotpot', a lovely DIY meal of fresh veggies and dumplings.
Today, we're off to a silk market, where I hope to have a smoking jacket made! It'll go great with the Otard cognac I'm going to buy at the airport on my way home...
Will try to update every day, WiFi permitting.
