SHANGHAI
September 13th, 2009
I went to the Urban Planning Museum in Shanghai which at first seemed a bit frustrating that I was going to a museum about a city I was actually in and thus able to visit the city itself. Yet, I stand corrected. The museum was interesting with photos from the city’s past plus an enormous (like 30 x 30 feet) floor model of the entire city. I apologize I don’t have a picture. Instead I do have one of me and a shiny statue of Haibo, the mascot of Shanghai’s upcoming World Expo.

Unfortunate pic of me but Haibo looks pretty good
