Walk on the Promenade


Saturday we spent a family day and went to the fake market, took a walk on the Promenade near Huangpu River, and ate at Hooters. Not your typical family day, but our family day none the less. Thought I would put up some pictures from our walk. The weather was not great, but there was a TINY bit of sun. Cold though. I think it is never going to warm up here in Shanghai.  We didn't get the Promenade until after 4pm, too much shopping at the fake market I guess. There were lots of people as this is a holiday weekend. Chingming Jie is Monday, which is Tomb Sweeping day. So, hard to get a picture without heads in the bottom. The pictures here are of the Bund, across the river in Puxi. They have been doing reconstruction over there for months. Last weekend was the first weekend it was open. You can see from one of the pics that the Bund walk was FILLED with people. That is why we decided to stay in safe Pudong!






One of the funny things was seeing this woman "grooming" her husband. I got a few pictures, and she seemed non-plussed that she might be attracting attention.




Natalie had some ice cream from Hagen Daaz and then we headed back to the Super Brand mall for some shopping. Had to buy an Easter outfit for Natalie. She picked it all out on her own. And you can tell she is a girl because she told me she HAD to have the shoes that went with the outfit she wanted. And you can tell I am a woman, as I bought them! Then we ate at Hooter's.
