Found a pair of shoes for 7000 and a nice “man purse” for only 12000.

Well, well. the only thing I’m buying here is the cappuccino I’m drinking. at least that was cheap (ok, 45 SEK)

The salmon was great.
The soup was superb.
The meat was a bit cold but deliscious.
The cheesecake, to die for.

Just going to eat my “wienerbröd”, drink my tea and watch an episode of “How I met your mother”.

But after that….zZZzZzZzZ…

Good night all! And welcome to 2010!

Soon we’ll meet up with our friends at Henkes dads apt and eat our catered four-course meal.
Smoked salmon, mushroom soup, veal then cheesecake.
Then we’ll see. The night is young.

Then we went to a bar to grab some shots before hitting the bowling. C:s. The greatest bar in Shanghai. Ok, not the greatest, rather the opposite, the most rundown…But you get a tequila shot for 10 and a drink for 15. So who cares?

Then, the bowling.
The rules:
You´re not allowed to be sober (not a problem at this hour)
You have to pick the largest shoes they have. (not a problem for me, hehe)
You must, under no circumstances, use the holes in the balls.

I just have to say… I RULE! Our team won every game and I had the most points. 84!!! (you try to bowl without using fingers in the holes to steer)
Bigfoot is King! See evidence in photos.

Best of all. After lots of food, lots of alcohol, some medicine and a bit of adrenaline.
The cold´s almost gone.

Until the next time!

Well, I´m not spending new years sleeping in a sofa in Shanghai no mather how sick I get. Why deal with a problem today when you can push it forward?

But right now it´s so boring. Want to be out exploring Shanghai. Photographing, shopping, eating…But I’m just too tired.

Well, well. Tonight we´re going out on Teppanyaki (Japanese all-you-can-eat). So tonight I´m going to try to drink it away. If I have enough alcohol in the system the virus won´t be able to survive.
If not, I´ll probably get sicker tomorrow but at least I will have a great evening tonight!

Cheers!

Don’t know if it’s the AC that’s constantly blowing air at me all night. Or the smog and the bad air in Shanghai. Or if I’m actually sick.

But I could definitly use lots of Strepsils and Ipren right now.

Well, well, it will pass. everything does.

The Radisson Hotel is a 48 story building in the middle of Shanghai centrum. And at the 46th floor they have a luxurious restaurant. That revolves, spins round and round…Takes about an hour to complete one turn and then you’ve seen the entire skyline of Shanghai. Except the Radisson ofcourse.

And the food was great too. Though very, very expensive. In Shanghai standards. Like a normal restaurant in Sweden. About 370 for a two-course dinner and a pint o beer.
Although if you wanted you could buy the South African Antiloop for main course and birds nest for dessert. Then you would have been up to 1800 rmb…

We also went for a walk down the biggest shopping street. Looking at stores you wish you had the money to enter. The Louis Vuitton Store, the Ferrari store, the Bentley store, the Maserati store, Omega…You could easily spend 10s of milions there in an afternoon. If you had the money…

Time is approxematly 5 am and I’m awake. Just got back from the pub. C bar, Sea bar, or whatever it’s called. Cheap stuff in basement. Sex on the beach = 15 rmb (17 sek)
Imported beer, 60 cl, 20 rmb (22 SEK)

Still awake. Haven’t got to sleep before 5 since I got here… Maybe tomorrow.

Love you!
A signing out.

And when I was there I ordered a jackett and 3 shirts too. Tailormade and the total cost…400!
It will probably be more before I go home…

We also went to Cloud 9, a gigantic shopping centre about a kilometer from where we live. Didn’t buy anything there. But it was great to see, Jack and Jones, H&M, Esprit… But roughly the same prices as in Sweden.

I can’t understand why someone would pay 1200 for a H&M blazer when you can have it tailormade to your specicific design for 300. Just beyond me.

Love from Asia!
