well the train from Xian to Shanghai was an experiance; when we got on we were the only ones gettin on in Xian in our carriage, the lights were off and it was well hot. the attendant turned on the lights; there we rows and rows of 3 high bunks and no doors. i was on top of row 3 and rob on top of row 12. thank god for mobile phones so i could text rob.... next issue was there was only squat toilets and i was wearing combats and ugg boots, bad times !!!!! then at 6am they opened the blinds, then at 7am they turned on the chinesse radio THEN we were delayed by 4 hours. i had to use the stinky loos 3 times..... I am now a squat expert
ok so Shanghai.... a building site. it's lovely but it is all being done up so it's dusty and lots of cranes etc. more stares and papping and posing for photos with old ladies. yesterday we found the ritz carlton, hilton, a park, a temple, shopping malls lots of them :-) i am now the proud owner of a chloe handbag :-)
today we got our thai visas, went to the Bund river and did a cruise and saw the highest building in Shanghai; over 88 floors. we also had dinner for one pound each in a local kitchen; good times ;-)
rob and i are now planning our trip to Suzhou and then eventually to Hong Kong; bye for now. Hilton 2m :-) xxx
