Shanghai skyline

April13

Been in shanghai for a few days now and really enjoying it as a city.

The site of the new World Expo is amazing and when it opens in 18 days time they’re expecting 400,000 people a day to visit! Only in China!

The tallest building in this photo is Pearl Tower which last night was struck by lightening at 1am making a noise akin to a bomb going off. It caught fire and somehow they put it out. You tell me how!

Off to Taipei tomorrow for the next leg of the Far East tour
