After walking around the city for the day we decided to get some dinner and walk around near the “Bund”. This is the area next to the river and today was the re-opening of the park. It has been closed for about 1 ½ years for construction and this re-opening was a really big event for a lot of the locals. The Bund really looks nice with all the city lights and activity at night. We decided to take a boat on the river and go to the other side of the “Bund” to the most expensive real estate in all of Shanghai. The city is really alive at night and they light up all the buildings and boats.
On Sunday I went with Dan and Renee to the Shanghai Aquarium. I had been wanting to go there since we got to Shanghai because it is a very well known aquarium. The inside has exhibitions for every region in the world and some of the rarest fish are kept at the aquarium. It took us several hours to get through the entire thing so after I got back to the old campus I headed back to school. Most of us had some homework to do for our classes and a paper that we needed to write for our Logistics Class. The weather has still been a little cold but there has been several nice sunny days where we wore shorts.
