Well, we're just about to leave Shanghai for an overnight train to Xian, and we thought we should post some pictures. The problem is that this internet cafe won't let you plug in USB cables, so we had to pick photos from over the front desk with all the staff looking on. Given the pressure, and the fact that the photos were in thumbnail format, they are few and random. I hope you enjoy, and we'll post more when we have a chance.

We took a walking tour through a "nong", which are old, densely populated areas of Shanghai. We spotted this guy washing up down an alley. Maybe it's an invasion of privacy, but it was too cool of a shot to miss.

Shanghai by night. Not the best picture we took on the boat cruise, but like I said...we were searching through mini-photos over a desk.

One shot from the acrobat show. After watching two girls crash in the "trick cycling" segment, both of us were biting our nails during this one.

That's Shanghai in a nutshell. If the internet cafes in Xian are more lax with USBs, then we'll post more in a day or so.

Cheers,

Shayne and Jo
