I'm off to China Saturday evening (45 or so hours from now) for one week Only an internet away ... :-). Qingdao. Hotel internet is good. I'll be passing through Shanghai on the way back. No other opportunities for touristing as my wife assure me that I'm meeting the rest of the family in Brisbane to start a long planned holiday. I'm transiting between the two airports with a major aim of riding the high speed maglev "Bullet Train" - probably the fastest I will ever travel on land (or in this case JUST off land). Apart from that, what can I see most worthwhilely in Shanghai in about 2 hours. I spent a few hours just walking the city centre a few months back (many photos). The Bund is said to be worth seeing - and I have no idea what it offers in views, but will be then. Any other encapsulated must do's for a whistle stop city crossing tourist.
