First stop Shanghai
The hole in the top of the building is for Feng shui...basically so the dragon can get from the mountains to the water.
The tall building in the back is the Shanghai Tower..the tallest building in China.
When we were young we used to go to a small store called "Lawson" to get Chipped Chopped ham (very thinly cut ham lunch meat) Julie and I wondered if this might be the same one.
The theme of the trip became the countries bird...the Crane.
The bank of the Huangpu River
The Oriental Pearl Tower
The Bund
The Shanghai Bund has dozens of historical buildings, lining the Huangpu River, that once housed numerous banks and trading houses from the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Italy, Russia, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, and Belgium, as well as the consulates of Russia and Britain, a newspaper, the Shanghai Club and the Masonic Club.
This is what we looked like for most of the trip.
Julie was able to hook up with one of her student's mom.
