We just received the keys to our new flat in Shanghai.  It is on the Pudong (east) side of the river on the 29th floor.  We are excited about the new place.  No more walking up stairs to get home.  We will have much more room than Hong Kong.  We have a guest room, so pack your bags for a visit.

We have a wonderful view of the Jin Mao Tower (the tall one in the foreground on the right), the Oriental Pearl Tower (the needle with the two balls top and bottom) and across to the Bund (in the background where the laser lights are coming from). 

The night this picture was taken most of Shanghai was shut down for all the visting Heads of State (an all Asia economic meeting).  We had a great fireworks, but the Chinese over did it a little – soooo much smoke that you could not see the buildings or the fireworks.
