Wrapping up my recent visit to Shanghai below is a collection of random photos I took while out and about. Despite having visited the city many times of the past few years I still don’t feel I have a good grasp of its geography. Perhaps this has something to do with the rate everything is changing or the hurriedness of each trip…
Right now Typhoon Molave (category 1) is making its merry way towards where I’m sitting in Shenzhen and by the looks of this satellite graphic we could be in for quite a show. It’s expected to make landfall tonight (in the next few hours) and should bring with it wind speeds in excess of 100 km per hour (force 9). Right now we’re experiencing the calm before the storm and the streets are eerily quiet – time to batten down the hatches. Something tells me I’ll be spending tomorrow at home watching safely from my balcony window! Thanks to Asian Ramblings for first spotting this.
