Mornin'

My body clock is still in Sydney time, meaning I got up at 3am and I pretty much didn't sleep after that..... so if this post makes little sense, you know why. I am pleased, though, that this version of IE is completely in English, which will hopefully result in only having to write this up once (I had a bit of trouble yesterday!!)
So Shanghai.... apart from being a huge city and major port, the place is a conglomerate of French colonial architecture and contrasting, mundane skyscrapers. There is a thick haze hanging over the city and the humidity factor is huge. I have not seen much besides the Bund area, so today will be my first day out. On the agenda is the Shanghai museum and a visit to a legendary veg restaurant.
I passed by a few food stalls this morning, but have not been game enough to try the food. It doesnt help that I can't read the menu, either (maybe a few mandarin lessons wouldnt go astray). Everything smelled great though, so maybe tomorrow I will go down for a true Shanghanese Brekky.
