Leaving Shanghai

As I write this, we are traveling at over 200 miles per hour on a high speed maglev train from Shanghai to Beijing. The incredibly cute baby pictured above is seated with her mother in the row in front of us. We will travel almost the distance from Portland to Los Angeles in about 4 1/2 hours.

Last night at dinner we each shared our favorite memories of Shanghai. Topping everyone's list was the Yu Garden, Jade Temple, and the Shanghai Acrobat show. Grant and Monica also really enjoyed the Watertown, and the glass floor 900 feet up in the TV Tower was another big hit.

We have enjoyed our time in Shanghai, and are looking forward to what we expect will be a look at a very different part of China during our next stop, Beijing.
