The Pearl

August 7, 2008

First day in Shanghai. I ride the incredible MagLev train from Pudong Airport into the city at 431 kilometers per hour. Really fast!

I checked in to my hotel and went walking. Nanjing walking road was my first visit. Basically it is Shanghai’s version of Times Square. Lots of neon and tons of people. Not very many foreigners at all! A nice couple from DC took my photo at the Pearl. (That’s their shadows you see)

I walked from 3:00-11:30. I saw allnof Nanjing Road, the Bund and a lot of cool areas of the city.
