Week 5 - Farewell Shanghai (for now)

I had a few Jerel-free days in Shanghai (he's in Moscow - more later...) but still had plenty of fun thanks to Lourdes and Julie. We enjoyed Shanghai's best dumplings at Din Tai Fung's (although apparently pork is better still than veggie!), checked out the view (and wine) at the aptly named 'Cloud 9', explored some trendy boutique shops, ventured to the 'fakes' market for some intense bargaining (not for the faint of heart), and indulged ourselves with drinks, sweets, and a free manicure at ladies' night (the tame kind) at Sugar. I also managed to secure a Visa to Russia so that I could join Jerel on his first project abroad.. stay tuned for 'Adventures in Moscow'!
