SHANGHAI

Nihao

Well, here we are in Shanghai. We just arrived at dusk (7:00'ish) and did our recon of the area where we are staying, by the Main train station. We have located the China Post, KFC, McDonald's & Starbuck's. So we have all the necessities of good ole American life.

Quite a heat spell going on. The next few days will be hot, hot, hot! Highs in the upper 90's with possible thunderstorms in the afternoons! Tomorrow we have a packed day, lecture in the morning and then some sights in the afternoon, dinner with some business big-wig of one kind or another. The next day is a free day! And the days after that are mostly sightseeing and free time!

Thanks, Kristi, for the update on the animals! Maybe I can bring you back a Chinese baby girl as a gift ; 0 hope everyone is staying cool, take many swims for me, please!!
