Day 8- Shopping in Old Shanghai

We left for shopping in Old Shanghai at 9:30. This is where everyone bargains shops and negotiates. We spent about 2 hours there, and our first stop was the best- STARBUCKS!! It was very cold and breezy and the cafe' mocha hit the spot, and Anna and Mickey had cheesecake! We then went to another authentic Chinese restaraunt for lunch- not as good as the day before, but the kids all loved it, including the seaweed. Got stuck in traffic on the way home, and you can see below what Anna thought about it. Later for dinner we went out for Italian- and it was decent. We had garlic bread, pasta carbonara and Mickey had pizza (for the 4th time). Tomorrow is the zoo and our flight out at 4:30, so will have to play catch up when we get time.


























No we didn't drink the beer, but they saved the french fries for last- and Mickey was excited!!
