Shanghai is awesome! Yesterday, we rode the Maglev train that travels at 431 K (268 miles per hour). The landscape simply blurred by the window.

We have a ringside seat from our balcony with a perfect view of city lights at night. Barges and tour boats pass by in a never-ending parade. Alan and I have been skipping drinks in Observation Lounge in favor of our own private party on the balcony where we can see and hear the ships going by.

Today we shopped but came back to the ship empty handed although there is a jewelry store holding certain items that we need to "think over." More shopping is planned for tomorrow. We have thoroughly enjoyed this itinerary.
