We spent a few hours at the lovely Shanghai Museum.
Lots of young people asked to have photos taken with us. One young girl latched onto tour member Birgit, and accompanied her for some time, while reading the English language signage to Birgit so that Birgit could help her with her English!

| It appeared that they both had fun with this. Birgit is in the red top. |
I actually purchased here a small, 8x10" painting of a fisherman that I like. I think it will be a good souvenir hanging in my office at home.
The BUND:
We strolled on the Bund, for just an hour or so, in a gentle rain. The Bund is a waterfront area in central Shanghai. The area centers on a section of Zhongshan Road, which runs along the western bank of the Huangpu river. It is, in addition to a major tourist stop, a center of economic activity in China.

| The eastern side of the Huangpu river, with ALL NEW construction since 1990! It was all farmland before that time. |

 |
| We couldn't see the top of the famous sphere... |
 |
| My wife Sharon, with umbrella! |
 |
| Oh, yes. Looking for an ATM! Shanghai |
