Shanghai Day 1
Well it's good to be back to HK since I can finally get to blog. China has banned blogspots and Xanga so no access to them for 3 weeks. Shanghai entry is long overdue! On the first of June, I flew from Shenzhen to Shanghai taking Shenzhen Airlines. Cost me about $100 which is real cheap as there's food included in it. The flight is about 2 hrs and I touched down in Pudong, Shanghai.
The weather is cool there like aircon. Luckily it's not that hot. Then waited at the airport for the rest of the people to arrive. Waited for almost more than 3 hrs for the rest of the Singaporeans cause they got lost in the airport! Nevermind, finally we found them and checked into our international hostel in Shanghai University. Wow, it's like a budget hotel! Cool! Totally different from the standard of NTU hostels. Cause you got your own bathroom, aircon and even TV.
After checking in and having a short rest, we were given a short orientation of the school and time to buy our groceries in a supermarket at a shopping centre nearby. The things sold in China is damn cheap! Wa lao, 4 packs of big tissue paper costs only about $2 sing! While walking back to the hostel, guess what I saw? Condom dispenser! It's everywhere in the streets.
The next day we had an opening speech and short lecture on Shanghai.
Thereafter we were brought to several places in Shangahi like Xin Tian Di and Yu Garden
In Xin Tian Di
Somewhere near Yu Garden
The world's smallest "Er hu"
Finally we had our welcome dinner at a nice restaurant which has very nice ambiance. Nice.
