Shanghai - Day 1

Feeling so tired now after walking ard for half the day!

I am supposed to be in Shanghai for business for the whole week. YT heard that I will be in Shanghai so he asked if he and his friend can join me for this trip. The both of them had intended to go Shanghai for the World Expo in September or October. Since I will be in Shanghai for business, they wanted to join me so that they can save their money on the accommodation. I was alright with them bunking in with me so they will be with me for this trip!

After checking into the hotel, I met up with YT and Mini outside. They waited for me at Raffles City and then we went to makan dinner.

Xiuzhen brought along a Shanghai Tour Guide Book so we went and hunt for dinner according to its recommendations.

We went around eating 生煎包,雪菜鳝丝面 and 雪菜辣酱面. I like the 生煎包 but I'm not very fascinated by the noodles. :P

After dinner, we walked down to The Bund from one of the train stations. We did not go to the Bund as there were too many people. Instead, we stayed at the area opposite The Bund where we can still see similar night scenes. By the time we were ready to leave, it was quite late. We had a hard time finding transportation back to the hotel. In the end, we had to pay more to take the "private" cabs back to the hotel. Sigh... Tio tok...
