Shanghai Photos
Hey there Chinarchists (what?) I’m back and I’ve got some vacation photos for you. I know it’s been awhile since my last post and that’s because I’ve been busy traveling and having guests. I visited Shanghai and also another section of the Great Wall.
Below is the gallery of the Shanghai photos; I’ll post the Great Wall photos shortly. Also, I’m hoping to have another podcast recorded tonight, so wish me luck motivating myself to do that.
As far as these photos go, I skipped the normal method of describing each one. Because I took so many I just have them in gallery form, so click each one and you’ll get a short description of what it is.
The only thing that warrants explanation is the creepy psychedelic tunnel photos. They are from a gondola lift ride that goes underneath the Huangpu River. It was so weird.
I’ll talk more about what Shanghai was like in the podcast, but for now, just check out the photos.

Wow, great job, you’re an awesome photographer. I am surprised to see the rewards of capitalism in a communist nation.

Yeah, it didn’t take the Party too long to realized that if they loosened the chains a little bit the slaves would be way more productive.
Plus, they saw what happened when the Soviets’ only strategy was to tighten the iron grip.
By the way, thanks for the compliments on the photography. I really need a good DSLR or something, I’m still just using a fancy point-and-shoot.
What is your favorite shot? I think “Park 2″ is the prettiest.
