We had our official group photo taken today by a professional photographer. She just used our digital cameras one after another. Nowadays, it is no longer good business trying to sell group photos to tourists because most of them carry a digital camera.
The Bund on the other side, is the famous 上海灘 which most Malaysians have seen in movies. I just could not imagine coming here to see the real thing in my life time. My wife Christine is especially excited because she is a Shanghai-ghese from Jejiang province 浙江省 . She was born in Cameron Highlands; but her father was born in China. I was born in Miri, Sarawak and my father was born in Kudat, Sabah.
The floor around the rotating restaurant on top of the Pearl Tower, is completely made of glass to allow tourists to get a clear panoramic view of Shanghai while they dine.
We had a very sumptuous meal at the rotating restaurant on the Pearl Tower. The lunch was buffet style with many choices. As the tour progressed the dinners were also getting better towards the end. Apparently we have joined the right tour group, just by pure chance. It seems that our tours, hotels and meals were subsidized by the China Tourist Bureau.
