Greetings from Shanghai.. where the weather is just like home.. not my most recent home of Veremont.. bu where I grew up.. In Houston Texas. I landed here today after a 14 hour flight with no power and no movies.. Believe it or not.. i really like it.. i shout off my brain and just hang out… (and went through a few buzillion emails)
It was like landing in a suana.. it was pouring rain and about 90 degrees. i felt like i wrapped in a warm awet blanket .. just like i grew up…
I took the subway ($1) in the hour or so to town instead of a taxi ($50 !) . and it probably took the same amount of time .. ..

You were taking line 2, connecting two airports and one railway station, the office, city center, so it is the most popular line that we’d like to live near by. Pudong, as the name of new district, with more wider roads and more trees and more job chances for economics, IT, is thought a good place to settle down. But for education, medicine, it’s worse than the west part of Shanghai, or, Puxi.
Economy class for a Fellow, really!?
