Red Evan

There’s a couple of people I wish that I’d packed up in my backpack and brought with me, just because they’d love Shanghai.
Ianto would be overwhelmed by the bikes which, this being China, are everywhere. Sadly, there’s no carbon fibre or shimano gear shifters to be seen. All of the ladies would be blown away by the shopping.
But the person who’d dig the history the most? Well, I have to say that Red Evan would be enjoying the communist history, and memorabilia scattered around this city.
Evan is so much in the thoughts of Dan and I (how much we miss his witty banter and naked swimming already) that we made a bus stop so we could take a photo for him.
Now, nothing stops a Shanghai bus. But we did.
This post is for you Evan Smith!

Evan. If you’re reading this, you owe me $50.00.

Naturally I’ll take anything fascistic.
Have you been to the ancient city of books in Shanghai? Are you being offered ‘a line of ladies’ every few feet? The aquarium is very good (and the big tower next to it if it isn’t foggy), although 100RMB for each is comparatively expensive for China (but what’s that, $15 or $16 each?).

If Evan’s reading this his head is probably about 2km across by now…
Except that he’s pretty much as humble as Ianto, so it’s probably not really.
Ianto – nice panniers!
Dan – What’s with the bananas? Are you commenting on our current Australian banana crisis?
Pippa – mwah! mwah!
