Weekend in Shanghai

After Flo arrived on Friday we took the Maglev train (Transrapid) which drove over 430 km/h along Shanghai....impressive.

On Friday we went out eating in my little Chinese restaurant I know from 2003...very delicious food and then went down Nanjing Lu to Tongren Lu where a bar strip is located. In the end I went to bed at 5 AM....

On Saturday we decided to go to the Fake Market to buy some stuff for him....that was funny...bargaining with the Chinese for shirts, trousers, shoes, ...
Then we ate in a restaurant at Huai Hai Zhong Lu for dinner before meeting a colleague of mine at Julu Lu in a lounge called Mesa. A very noble lounge with some separés where we stayed along with 10 other Chinese, French, German and Swedish guys.
A small group of us went then to the newly opened VIP Room. An interesting interior. 50 RMB entrance fee, I hate this new style to have to pay for the entry here in Shanghai. The music, very loud Chinese techno was definitely too much for us so we then decided to leave. In the end we ended up at Fuxing Park in Park97 Upstairs, always a good venue for relaxing drinks.

Today we're going to see the Bund as the weather - for Shanghai - is quite nice.
