This is McDonalds in Shanghai. Heaps of food chains like Starbucks, Subway and KFC. |
Went to the
Captain’s Bar later that night. So many people are begging for money etc. One
woman had her child out begging for her .. very sad .. actually let the child
run out in the street amongst the cars to ask. I nearly had a cow watching one
little seemingly 4 year old darting through the traffic to ask!! It had started
to rain so we were also running trying not to get wet. Storm ended up being
quite spectacular. In thed rush to avoid the rain I slipped over on the street
and banged my knee up! No one offered to help me up! Just amazing with so many
people around!

The meal at the Bar was pretty ordinary but
the atmosphere quite pleasant AND it was air conditioned. It was still pouring
as we left to catch a cab back to the hotel .. quite exhausted after such a
packed, hot day.
