Shanghai Here I Come



Not long now until I head off to China. I am pretty excited; it has been pretty boring here at the moment. My last trip was camping at Easter. Big changes since I last mentioned China, the education department have knocked back schools taking two teachers so Leigh got the flick. 

Whilst I went 2 years ago, I’m sure lots has changed. In fact, I am hoping that we go up the new Shanghai tower. It’s the second biggest building in the world and has the highest observation deck. Shane’s looking forward to going on the Maglev train and actually going 431kmph. Last time we missed the last one and had to settle for 300kmph, Shane wasn’t happy. There are a few teachers in the same boat so they will be making sure they make that 431 train. 

I think there will be a lot of meals at Yangs Dumpling house which is just near our accommodation in Peoples Square. The kids seem to like breakfasts the most as they have a few more familiar things for them to have. 

Another difference this time is that airline. We are flying Air China, which has caused a bit of unrest amongst the travellers because you can only take 1 suitcase. Thank god Milana is there otherwise I might get tossed in the bin as Shane purchased a lot of junk last time. 

Well I can’t wait.
