The first installment of photos:

Ni qu kanjian.

What's included:

1. Day and night shots of Nanjing Lu, which is like Times Square at night... And also I've never been propositioned by so many hookers - ever.

2. Various shots around Puxi, the west side of the Huang Pu river... People's Square, Yanzhong Park, Shanghai Museum, Shanghai Performing Arts Center, and various distinct buildings. Also, the tunnel from The Bund to Pudong under the Huang Pu river - by far the trippiest monorail ride in my entire life. (You can't miss those)

3. Various shots around Pudong, the east side of the Huang Pu river... Includes the Oriental Pearl Tower, or the giant one balled cock; Jinmao Tower, the tallest building in China; and next to Jinmao the construction of the New World Center, which upon completion will be the tallest building in the world.

I keep forgetting, Shanghai has twice the population of New York. Jesus, no wonder.

And I just love exchange rates from CNY to AUD... ;) My 5 pork dumpling lunch was 50 cents today, my taxi fare last night going about 3 km was $1.60, and my drinks - although expensive for China - are running around $4.00 each for double Jack and Cokes... ;)

Zaijian!
