a musical journey (Part 5)!

Here's a little photo tour.

Day 3: We reached the nanjing road about 10AM. The wind was dry and chilly. So we're very much like Rudolph. After breakfast, i tried to shop. It's a road so long that we couldn't see the end of it. Halfway through, we bumped into these outdoor fine arts exhibition by their locals. Very impressive! There's plenty of shops selling local candies, groceries and seasonal apparels. McD has five outlets throughout this area, but the sundae cone has only two flavours at one size - regular. Comparatively, we're lucky to be spoilt with more choices in Malaysia. All the shops were packed with tourists from all over the world or more likely all over china. So the storekeepers wouldn't have time for you to hesitate. They'll serve the customers behind while you try to figure out what you want. Definitely living the chinese proverbs 'time and tide wait for no man'.

After a long walk, we came to the famous peace hotel. But our attention were drawn immediately by the majestic pearl tower of shanghai. A symbol of shanghai's cosmopolitan status. There's a cruise boat specialise in Huangpu River tour for tourists. The old fashioned boat in pic was plenty as well.

As old sayings, when in rome, do what romans do. Thus we joined the sea of tourists and took the tunnel ride below the HuangPu River which was RMB 30 per head. The ride lasted about three minutes with color lightings around the tunnel. Nothing fancy but kinda reminds me of the space ship passages from 80's movies. We took the subway back which was RMB3 per head. And the walk continued...
