Shanghai - what time is it???

We've arrived in Shanghai: this is definitely not Foleshill!

Best thing so far

  • Melissa: Going to sleep, and the market round the corner before that: gameboy games for four pounds!
  • Rosa: Sleeeeeping
  • Heather: Being brave enough to go into a proper Chinese cafe where nobody spoke English, and managing to order things we could eat
  • Mark: Showering, cleaning my teeth, playing my guitar a bit (but see below) ...

Worst thing so far

  • Melissa: Smelly street near our youth hostel. Food's been a bit horrible.
  • Rosa: Having to wake up again
  • Heather: Jet lag - and not being able to sleep on the plane ...
  • Mark: My guitar's broken already! :-( It must have got whacked and the soundboard is coming away from the wall over about 15 cm

Next on the list

  • Melissa: Go round some more shops
  • Rosa: Find an internet cafe that is faster than this one!
  • Heather: I'm hungry now
  • Mark: Find a website about fixing your own guitar with gaffer tape and superglue
More interesting posts as soon as we can find a place with faster internet access and our brains begin to work again - lots of love to all - M, R, H, M xx

Hi to you all. It's great to get news so quickly, it helps a lot with missing you. There will be lots of people who can fix the guitar in China according to my travelled friends, the Lucks.
Lots of love to you all, Jo xxx

Hi guys

Great to hear from you, sounds like your settling in fine, we are all okay, little bit sad, weather is the same as you left it. Lani and I are have a few days rest doing nothing other than going to work. Kizzy is ok so far. Love to you all
