The trip to Shanghai was 15 hours long! We took a sleeper bus, which was an experiance in itself. It was a big bus with one layer of beds on the floor, and another layer of beds above them. It wasn't uncomfortable, but I woke up every time the bus stopped for a moment. It seemed to stop a lot, and for long periods of time. One of the girls I'm with really disliked it.
The hostel I'm staying at is lovely, and charges less than ten US dollars a night. It's nicely decorated, and includes free breakfast and free net access. We just walked around gathering bits and pieces of a lunch from the stalls set up along the street. I had noodles that looked like the stuff served at the Thai place in Kennebunkport, but tasted like squid. However, I also had som e fruit on a stick that was so good that I went back for seconds.
Anyway, off to do stuff.
