I am now back in Shanghai and start my mandarin lessons on Monday. Send your best wishes to my tutor, he will need it. Theresa and I plan to explore The Bund this weekend and then do some "Mother's day" stuff on Sunday. Temp outside today is 27 and blue sky (sort of).
This picture will give you a sense of construction in Shanghai. What you are looking at is what will be the tallest building in China - some 120 stories I believe. It's across the road from our apartment and the model of what it will look like is the picture I use for this blog.
The construction goes on seven days a week, 24 hours a day with the workers sleeping in dorms on site (the temp three story trailers with the red roofs at the bottom of the picture. I will post pictures as the building rises. As hard as it is to believe they expect the building to be finished in 2013.
