oh my god our china trip was great. i loved it. we went to two cities. first we went to shanghai. it is such a huge city. it was bigger than any city i have ever been to. allan and i had the weekend to spend there before our next trip to suzhou. we covered all of the tourist attractions. we went to bund street which is kind of like the lake shore drive area of chicago, we saw the pearl tower, went to museums, ate at good restaurants and went shopping.
after our trip in shanghai we flew to suzhou where allan was going for work. he was able to take a couple of days off and show me around. this is the city where allan use to go when we were living in chicago and he was traveling. it was really fun for me to see where he was spending so much of his time.
when allan went to work i keep myself very busy. there was no reason for allan to be worrying about me. i met some other expats and they showed where all the good shops where. these same people took me to the pearl market which was pretty amazing. it was in this huge warehouse and millions of people where selling all different types of pearls (for very cheap). the people i went with knew the good shops to go to so i just followed them.
at night time i would usually go with allan to dinners that he had for work. it was fun to meet his coworkers from all over the world. everybody was so nice.
so the exciting trip of china came to an end but we had more to look forward to because we knew we were going home to see our friends and family
