There is a blog that publishes a daily photo of Shanghai.

Enjoy! I'm very sure my wife would love to eat this again...

Things to do on weekends



Honestly - I'm relatively good at baking. I still need to try more cakes but it's getting better every weekend.



There is nothing better in this world than a "full" coffee machine that makes really fresh coffee. Only disadvantage is the higher coffee consumption.

Search Strings of the month

Some of last month's search strings:

- really funny photos in shanghai: I have no idea what "really funny" photos are?

- picture of maria daniels; fund manager: don't have.

- mr. reuben daniels: you all get this spam...

- ecological signs: made of paper or?

chinese jetta: there are plenty pictures of these on this website.

- gerassim noveliev: No idea!

- shanghai twin towers: What should that be? I'm pretty sure nobody is currently building twin towers here.

I'm sorry that there are only a few new posts during the last weeks/months. It's difficult to find something interesting in Germany. It's just not Shanghai and in no way China. I actually think that it would be nice to go back to China in the not too far future...

Thai Cola

 

A Coca Cola can in Thailand - at least you can recognize the design. I took this picture during my vacation in Thailand in 2005.

OBI China




These are "historic" pictures. OBI is a German company which had some stores in China (DIY shop). They gave up in the year 2005 and sold their Chinese business to B&Q.

Market



These are pictures of an illegal market next to the metro station entrance/exit nearby our apartment. The vendors arrive there at around 6 pm and tend to run away quickly when there's police nearby. They come back 5 minutes later then.
You can buy everything you need on this market - food, CD's, DVD's and handbags. :-)

Update: Changed the code that was wrong.

Some impressions from Shanghai

 

Construction next to our apartment. They closed a road to construct a tunnel. Luckily we moved out just before they started. This can be noisy for at least two years.

 

Added safety:

 

I took these pictures with my mobile phone camera. I finally uploaded them last weekend.

Chinglish II


This is a quite famous sign in the Shanghai Underground. I saw it when I arrived in Shanghai, but then they sticked some white paper on it to "cover up". After a year somebody took off the paper again.
