Shanghai, China


In Shanghai, our ship was docked in the heart of the city of 12 million people.  The city has grown at an amazing pace over the past 15 years and is now one of the largest in the world. We were perfectly located to watch the nightly light show displayed on the downtown buildings and famously tall TV tower.  We also enjoyed watching the steady stream of boats that passed off our balcony – most which were laden with building materials. 


Unfortunately, the weather was cold and rainy so we explored the city under our winter coats and umbrellas.  Despite the weather, we ventured out to the TV tower and city museum, stall markets, cheesy underground tunnel, and on a much needed date night.
