Shanghai Day 8
Well, on the plane home now, had a great time in Shanghai, and also acquired some great experience at work. Didn’t do much but work the last few days, as Angie headed back home Wednesday morning. I worked until 9pm the last copule days, and was able to get pretty much everything done that I set out to do. Also, it was nice to actually get back to working out a bit, the hotel actually had a great gym. Will post again with more details and some pictures of work stuff.
One cool thing I almost forgot – I took the Shanghai Mag-Lev train back to the airport, 7 minutes for the whole trip! The train is the only (commercial) one of its kind in the world, it reaches a top speed of 431 kph, and stays there for about a minute and a half. Its pretty cool, at one point it goes alongside a freeway, and the cars just zip by like I’ve never seen before. The train levitates using electromagnets, so there’s no friction besides that of wind resistance.
Hmm, no weird food to report about in the last few daysâ?¦. We had Korean bbq & hot pot last night, which included octopus, clams, oysters, scallops, and shrimp, but those things are just “normal” food to me nowadays
