Been in Shanghai for 3 days now
Shanghai is an unbelievable city. It easily rivals Manhattan in terms of size, skyline and business. There are about 3 times as many people in Shanghai as well.We are smack downtown in the middle of it all. This has been a great trip.
Went up about 350 meters into the Oriental Pearl Tower yesterday. That's over a eleven hundred feet folks. Check it out:

It has rained here alot and has been hot and humid.
A bunch of the guys on the tour got fitted for custom made, Italian wool suits,and custom made shirts at WW Chans of Shanghai. A real classy place from Hong Kong. We think we scored. I got a suit, 3 taylormade shirtsand 4 silk ties. Hopefully they will be ready by Saturday! http://www.wwchan.com/
Went to Shanghai Maritime academy today and visited Alibaba.com and Hangzhou HighTech zone where we got a great ecommerce presentation from Vice-Chief Mr.Han Gang. I will post stuff on this tomorrow.
Leaving for the U.S. on United this Sunday.
That's it for now...

sounds like you're having a great time. $1500 suits eh, i don't think I paid that much for all the suits i bought in my life. You couldn't spare a quarter for a cup of coffee could you? I'm off to piss off a few of the boys tonight (Thursday)at Fenway vs the tampa bays. talk to you soon
Hi JP:
What an interesting trip you are having. I'm anxious to hear more from you when you return, with pictures, I hope! Well, just a few more days and you will be home. It will probably take you a couple of days just to get over jet lag.
It's been raining here in Seattle, but that's normal, right?! Hurrican IVAN sure did some hefty damage to the south east though... whew! And another coming.
Hi JP, I can tell how busy you are in Shanghai. Look at the posting, shorter and shorter... anyway, that is good. I am glad you are having fun there. I already and always told you how big and exciting shanghai is. You always doubted me... Now you believe me, right? :-) hehe.. You should shop wisely as well. There are many places where you can get the high quality goods as those famous brands with very cheap prices. By the way, how about the girsl in Shanghai? ;-).. I can't wait to see you in Seattle. K.
