Nanjing Road (南京路)

One of the busiest commercial street in China, packed with shopping stores. The special things is, most of the building outlook maintain the classical western building.



永安百货 at the People's Square.


新世界(New world), the name still remains as old time.

Wuzhen Water Village (乌镇水乡)

An ancient town, featuring old building, stone bridges, stone pathways, canals, sampans, museums, shops and restaurant, welly preserved for tourism purpose. The experience like travel back to 200 years before. Of course, many beautiful scenery really worth paying the ticket for scenic viewing and photo shooting.

Highly recommended tourist spot for Shanghai visitors like us. It's about 2 hrs drive from Shanghai city.

PuXi and PuDong

It's enjoyable to see the night view of Shanghai, classical type of buildings at PuXi (浦西) and modern skyscrapers at PuDong (浦东) with lighting effects.
This PuXi night scene below was taken from the floating restaurant at PuDong.

For the coming Expo in May 2010, the city council re-constructing the Bund (外滩) area, separate the road for the vehicle and pedestrian. The road for vehicle will be changed to tunnel under the ground, so original area for pedestrian and it will be expanded and less noise pollution also. So currently the Bund area was blocked for visitors.

It was kinda disappointed when we were there, I couldn't take a great night shot of from Pu Xi to Pu Dong.

Shanghai World Financial Center (SWFC)

It's like a giant bottle opener and 493m height, it's the tallest building in China at this point of time.

Cloud covering the top of the building, couldn't see the iconic square hole at the top of the building at all.

We paid 150 yuan to get up to the observation deck at 100F, 97F and 94F.

Crowd at 100F Sky walk (474m) Observatory. Not only can see horizontally, but bottom too as some of the floor was made of glass. Too bad the weather is so cloudy that time, we hardly can see the skyscrapers and the city view. What a waste..

May be buying the SWFC figure for souvenir at the Sky Arena (323m), nah.. it can't open the bottle.

Shanghai 小籠包

Been to Shanghai at the mid of Dec, 2009 with family. This is one of the must try Shanghai local snacks 小籠包. A steamed juicy meat bun, taste with vinegar and sliced ginger, a perfect snacks in cold weather.

Snoopy going new home

Last Saturday, the "manja" king Snoopy left our home to his new owner. He also left us lot of "gold" to clean up in the morning.. (-.-") like he never go to toilet before.

We were happy that Snoopy got a dog lover owner. Darren, a friend of my dear. He is absolutely a doggie lover, even more enthusiastic than us. Can be seem from the way he treats Snoopy. Snoopy seem to be very happy at his new home. This fella needs plenty of attention and playtime, I think Darren has no problem with it.

We're not that sad this time. Since they are staying in Penang only. We shall visit them when we are free. While visiting Feipoh would be much inconvenient. I want to see how they look like when they are bigger.

Goodbye Feipoh

Time flies, the Schnoodle puppies are 8 weeks old already, which meant it's time to go to new home. Last weekend so happened to be a long weekend, I arranged with my friend Sunny to meet up in Ipoh and send Feipoh to him.

Feipoh is the female puppy of Coffee. Since we are not sure what will be her name later, we just called her "feipoh", as she always bigger and heavier than Snoopy, the male pup. Besides, she likes to eat more than Snoopy too.

She is such a naughty pup, likes to bite anything, but kinda clever in the sense of looking for newspaper for loo. And quite patience as she is pretty quiet when dealing with human. Unlike Snoopy, the male pup, who is rather "manja", panic and likes to get attention.. Obviously her characteristic is kinda like Coffee. While Snoopy is kinda like Komo.

Though we have to clean up their mess many times a day, it was frustrated sometime. When come to the time to give away, it was so sad. I missed her and worried about her too. Hope she is happy with her new owner.

I wonder how am I gonna be a breeder when I retire..
