Back From Shanghai

[GaryA]

Just thought I would let everyone know that I'm back from China and back on the road. Feel free to contact me if you need to have your car transported.

Shanghai is an amazing place with all the money that has been pouring in over the past 10 years. You would not believe how ultra modern the buildings are and the money that is flowing there. I'll definitely be going back.

going back in the plans already. What's her name?

Glad you made it back safely! That's a LONG trip!

I'll talk to you this week.

That was one HECK of a transport Gary!

Glad you are back in the States, had a few folks looking for some transport while you were gone!

I heard 100 story buildings are going up left and right. Whats that spacey-looking building, with the doughnut shaped bulge around the middle? Looks kinda sci-fi.

 

[GaryA]

Thanks everybody. It really is an amazing place. Damn Casey, am I that transparent? hahaha!

Vic, the building you're talking about is the Pearl Tower which is a TV tower. Here's a picture of the skyline (I didn't take this picture):

The tall building in the middle of the picture is 88 stories (Jin Mao Tower) and has the most amazing interior I've ever seen. Here's a picture (not mine) of the interior. 34 stories of open walkways to a bar/lounge below

Unbelievable place!

Holy cow, that's a crazy looking city there!

Did you see George Jetson flying around?

 

[C O D Y]

Oh yeah........how about cars over there....what did ya see?

 

[GaryA]

City -> Crazy, YES!

Women -> Young and beautiful and by the thousands!

Cars -> Driving is crazy over there. Very few Japanese cars like there are in the US. Most of the cars I saw were VWs (like Passat, and four-door sedans). I heard that Ferraris are being sold into China at a 2-to-1 ratio. I can't imagine driving a nice car there because the driving is a controlled chaos. The amazing part is that I didn't see as much as a door ding on a car there even though they are constantly within inches of each other dashing in and out of traffic.
