We made it to Shanghai! Two weeks of discovery of the city and its people. The trip was way less painful we
thought. 15-hour flight, half of it spent sleeping, which allowed us to be in
decent shape when we got to Pudong Airport in Shanghai.
Thanks to a good friend of ours, Jim Zhang and his father
welcomed us and took us to a great Chinese restaurant. Jim helped as a translator
with his father, when our one year of learning Chinese was not good enough.
The food was unbelievable, tasty, light, fresh. A wide
variety of amazing Shanghai specialties. And we love food. We were also treated
to Moutai, a very good traditional Chinese liquor.
We are very thankful to the Zhang family. What a better way
to reinforce our desire to learn as much as we can about the culture and the
people here.
Shanghai, here we are!
