And finally, I visited 2 tourist attractions today. I stopped by People Square for some banking stuff. Emerged into the park from the subway underground at a different exit this time, and found myself in the middle of the famous match making Saturday. People put up A4 size paper listing Male/Female, age, qualifications, job, hobbies and what they are looking for. Some stalls are professional match maker, some are just eager parents. And it was packed. Parents, mostly, were checking out the listings, just like when we look at real estate listings. Some are pulling out passports and ID cards to show the prospective interest. It was quite a scene. I am so sorry that I didn't discover that earlier for my visitors over last couple of months.
I also stopped by the Museum of Modern Art in Shanghai. A small venue, but just started a new exhibition, which is titled 'Nostalgia'. It was quite interesting to see some talented Chinese, Korean and Japanese young artists' work.
Off to an overnight trip on Monday. Then Wednesday night, I am leaving for my favorite NYC for a week. I can't wait to be home for some nostalgia.
