Today we headed off to the Shanghai World Financial Center and went to the tallest observatory in the world at 100 floors and about 474 feet. I was amazed that I was able to hang out up there and that my fear of heights didn't seem too bad--perhaps you are just so high that you cannot really mentally comprehend it, so it doesn't bother you anymore. After that and lunch we headed to the train station to find out about our options to get to Yangshuo--it was a bit of a hassle to confirm what we'd already found online. Then we headed to the Jade Buddha Temple which was a cool Buddhist temple that was still active. No photos of the title character were allowed, so I don't have one to include, but it was pretty spectacular. Alright, I'm going to sign off to work on updating our itinerary while Reid takes a nap before we head off for dinner (yum! more Chinese food) and wandering about.
