The Nelson Family: First couple of days in China
http://tomnelsonfamily.blogspot.com/2008/12/first-couple-of-days-in-china.html
10-day weather forecast in Shanghai, China. Monday, December 1, 2008. First couple of days in China. I also slept on the plane for 1-2 hours. The plane had movies to watch but they were all lame. The Japanese guy next to me didn't talk or say a word the entire trip. There was a family (mom, dad, 6-mo old baby) on the middle aisle and their kid was the calmest baby ever for a 10 hour flight. Not one peep until the descent. I met my host Alex after going through customs and immigration. He's about my h...

The Nelson Family: Excursion to Suzhou
http://tomnelsonfamily.blogspot.com/2008/12/excursion-to-suzhou.html
10-day weather forecast in Shanghai, China. Saturday, December 6, 2008. Driving home on the freeway was scary. The drivers here use their brights and the horn to let people know they are passing or want to get around. Also, people drive all over the road. The only driving rules I see are: the biggest vehicle has the right of way, and don't get in an accident. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View from the World Financial Center. Sign at a Shanghai Department store. Lunch on Saturday - freshwater turtle.

http://tomnelsonfamily.blogspot.com/2008/12/mei-guo-ren.html
10-day weather forecast in Shanghai, China. Friday, December 12, 2008. Mei guo ren (pronounced may-gwo-ren). This afternoon I visited the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum. It's a great place to take kids. It's a combination of the Bean Life Science Museum (in Provo) and the Seattle Science Center. And "That's too expensive.". Here's another interesting tidbit. According to the New York Times (12/12/08), when asked their personal philosophy, 68 percent of Chinese polled said it could be summed u...
