Well I arrived in Shanghai after a 17 hour train journey, managed to get some sleep last night woohoo lol. Its so smoggy here you cant see anything, lol. I went to The Bund which is the new part of Shanghai, the view is amazing, well what you can see of them. lol. It is well different than Beijing, not as clean and just feels like London.

We headed out to see the Shanghai Acrobats which was awesone, there were 5 motorbikes in one steel ball riding round. Its was so scary to watch how good they were. I really enjoyed it, a must see if your here. After that we head to find the nightlife and werent having much luck. We came across a tacky Amercian bar that was quite pricey and had an annoying Swedish guy in it lol. The drinks here are 4 pound a whack lol.

Having wandered for ages we came across a club, which looked good, it was so trendy. Half were western people and half chinese all dancing away...so i lived it up in shanghai :) and THE MAN PULLED HEHE :) I told you pat, you aint in the same league.haha..she was a gorgeous chinese girl. I didnt get home till 5am, Im so tired at the mo. The pictures will follow u you cant upload here for some strange reason.

I went on the Maglev train, the magnetic one. It floats above the ground and does 268 mph :P it was soo good, a bit scary in parts but well worth the money.

Im off out again tonight, Chris you will have to start sending me some funds over haha. We leave for Yangshuo tmrw, I have no idea what we are doing yet, but im sure it will be fun.

catch u guys later
