China part 4






On our way to Shanghai, we were entertained by this truck full of ducks travelling at 50 mph.  In Shanghai, we visited an impressive garden, the newly renovated "old Shanghai" shopping district and the waterfront overlooking the east half of the city where they're currently constructing the tallest building on earth.  At night, one can purchase many fine wares on the street including Rolexes and Mont Blanc pens for the amazing price of about $2.50 per watch and just under $1 per pen.  It must be legit since it all happens in front of the official Rolex and Mont Blanc stores.  On the way home we saw a hazy Mt Fuji from the airplane.
