From the brochure: Next, drive to Shanghai (approx. 2 hours) to visit the famous Bund. Shanghai is divided by the Huang Pu River into eastern and western sections. Modern mega high rises are seen on the eastern side while traditional European style architecture may be seen on the western side. The Bund is a five-block riverfront promenade with many of Shanghai's banks and trading houses.
We didn't do any of that, our guide deciding to change the order in which we would visit the various attractions in Shanghai.
We now have a 2 to 3-hour drive depending on traffic, to Shanghai with a happy house stop after 2 hours, which turned out to be a petrol station and a lot of little food places and a mini-mart.
Along the way I managed to get a photo of the fast train, a feat in itself considering the speed it was traveling:
We get a drink and bananas.
Of course, there were a lot of local products, some of which seems a little odd
I'm not sure what anyone would make of these, or some of the offerings inside the mall attached to the petrol station, but a lot of people declined the 'fast food' and piled into the grocery store, which was about the same as a Seven-Eleven store to stock up on items that might not affect their health.
I bought some very interesting drinks, or so my Chinese to English phone translator told me.
