Our 11th Anniversary

For our 11th anniversary on Jun 17th, we visited one of our favorite places in the French Concession. It’s on Wulumuqi Road.  We can buy videos, eat great Western food, buy good coffee, and hang out. Ben took this photo.

It was another great day in Shanghai

Later we visited the Foreign Languages Bookstore which we love. It’s off of East Nanjing Road on quieter more Chinese streets. (East Nanjing is a lot of malls.) Ben took this photo.

I always wanted to dress like twins on honeymoon per the Japanese custom.

We ate at a restaurant we like near there with great eggplant, shrimp fried in a butter-like oil over baby scallions with tons of garlic, fried fish, and of course, green bok-choy type veggies.

If you visit Shanghai, you have to get this shrimp dish! Also, most eggplant dishes are amazing

Then we took the 1 hour boat cruise where you can see all the buildings lit up at night on both sides of the river.

We all had a great time. The boat is moving, so pictures are blurry.
Several boats are touring. They look beautiful
Shanghai is very proud of its Pearl Tower. We have been under it, inside it, and seen it day and night. I do appreciate it more now. It turns many colors.
