Today we rocked Shanghai. We traveled by subway to the the World Financial Center, where we ascended to the 100th floor. From there we contineued to People's Park and the Jade Buddha Temple via subway and taxi. We had to remind the taxi drivers to turn on their meters, they apparently think that we are ignorant Americans, not Amazing Race contenders. All is well. Tomorrow we travel to the Grand Canal in Suzhou and then on Saturday begin our 30 hour return trip. We are healthy and happy, have spent some days on excursions with the group and others on our own or with others from the tour. The Terra Cotta Warriors were amazing, as is the morning Tai Chi ritual in the park. I have some great photos but this computer is being finicky so you will have to wait until I get home.
