Just A Quickie
From Into the Orient in Shanghai, China on Jun 28 '07
Our Russian visas were ready, so we had a quick stop in Shanghai. We left our luggage at the station and missioned off to the embassy, where we were first in line. There was no hassle in getting our passports back (there had been a bit of worry over Adrienne's as her middle name had been spelt slightly wrong on her Letter of Invitation) and we were at the station, noodles in hand, in good time.
While waiting for the train, a couple of guys opposite us were blatantly (i.e. as per usual) staring. Sean returned the favour but added a "ni hao", which they thought was hilarious - white devil speaking Chinese!
...white devil speaking Chinese!
Hardsleepers are normally ok (the beds aren't hard) but Adrienne slept badly. Earplugs are the order of the day next time.
