Packing for China!
No, that candy is not for the plane ride, Lily! That is for the kids at Benjamin's orphange!
On the airplane from PBIA to Chicago.
Lily zonked out....she did really well on the plane.
Of course the flight attendants fell in love with our family/story/Lily and Sarah and they treated them to ice cream only served in First Class!
Snow covered Siberia outside of Pauly's window.
WE ARRIVED!!!! Shanghai airport, collecting our luggage.
When we landed our Guide, Sophie, met us at the airport with a
van.
We walked outside braced for the low 30's we encountered.
Yes that is cold for us Florida folk!
Sarah in the van on the way to the Shanghai Mansion.
Sarah, Dad, Pauly in the van.....traffic = 1000 * the scariness of drivers in south Florida.....traffic lights, yea, they are optional.
That is the construction site for the World Expo in 2010 in Shanghai.
Crossing over the bridge into Shanghai. The outskirts of town.
We arrived in Shanghai at around 3pm and they drove us straight to the hotel...we went to bed pretty early, because it was REALLY hard to sleep on the plane.
Tomorrow's Agenda: Visiting the Pearl Tower, The Bund, Yu Yuan Garden and Nanjing Road.
