Busy streets, busy lives.

Vintage gardens of the Shanghainese.
Short peaceful roundabout by the river~

Before heading for the best Xiaolongbao/pork dumplings settlement  in the city 😀

Palm-sized dumplings, sipped with a straw. 

Foodgasmic contents~

International symbol of comfort,
source of caffeine sustenance:
my desperate attempt at staying on high alert for a night flight

Feels right at home.
Cafes do have that power of teleportation;
the right ambience and there you have it – instant comfort.

Warming our hands in the cold. Brr.

A little tinge of winter in England, no?

Green city, concrete state

And more pretty vintage Chinese buildings…
Hotel comfort 🙂
