A Shanghai Stroll

So even though I'm currently in the US on business right now, I wanted to write about the Shanghai streets, and some interesting behaviors you'll find.

I know the newspapers aren't doing so well in the States, but in China, people communally read them like this guy on his bike. It's a nice way to save paper and discuss with others about the news. They are all around on public streets.













The summer heat is already starting, and with it comes pajamas. Yes, for some odd reason in Shanghai people wear pajamas in the summer, in public, and go about their daily activities in this attire. Like this couple here.


















More so in the local streets, you'll see people gathering around to watch a game of cards, chess, or majiang.













There are no bikes at this "bike parking lot" but I like that the city has these all around .


















Also, most Chinese don't like to get too tan from the sun. I'll have to wait and snap a picture of all the ladies and their umbrellas, but at some crosswalks, they will have shades that people crowd under.
