Shanghai
I arrived in Shanghai early morning after a long flight for the first meeting with my fellow travellers. We were all very tired so the first information session seemed very long and we were keen to have a rest.
After lunch we went for a stroll along the Bund, which is on the west shore of the Huangpu River. The river traffic provided us with some entertainment and a boat went by with a huge TV screen.
It seemed to be a very popular spot for Shanghaiese, there were many enjoying the warm weather and refreshments from the many food stalls. One of the more interesting buildings to be seen from here is the Oriental Pearl TV Tower on the opposite shore.
We ended our first day in China with dinner at a restaurant where we enjoyed a rather strange floor show. The participants didn't seem particularly interested and as soon as they had finished they left, presumably for another restaurant to do it all again!

Hi Lib
Glad you arrived, but we need more information, like, are you having a good time????? What did you have for dinner????
Jen and I had an enjoyable time at Port Fairy - stopped in at Cheeseworld on the way and bought three bottles of wine and plenty of cheese and made short work of that when we arrived at the b&b (with help from Ben and Gay). Then went for a walk around the mutton bird rookery and then a nice meal of fish and chips - wouldn't be dead for quids!!!
Keep safe.
Hi Liz

Don't worry about your garden. It's raining today
