A few Shanghai photos

As I mentioned before, I finally had my camera repaired. I have a Canon G9, and got a lens error every time I turned it on. Luckily, I purchased the extended warranty when I bought it, because my lens was shot and had to be completely replaced. I was worried about having it replaced in China because I didn’t know if I could find a reputable repair shop. But it turns out that there is a registered Canon retailer/repair shop downtown in the Yalong International Plaza at 500 Jinling Road East. They were extremely professional, called me when they found out that it was going to be more than the 100RMB they originally quoted, and had everything ready for me when I arrived to pick it up….including the old lens. Now I can take photos again, but I have found that I forgot how. So excuse me for these less than great photos, but they’re still kind-of okay.

Gorgeous photos as always! I think I took a picture of the squid in front of the Shanghai museum too. Looks like the skies are blue right now.

stunning!

Amazing pictures. Do you prefer Chinese food to Japanese food?

John….I’m not sure if I prefer Chinese or Japanese food because I’ve never been to Japan. I do know that I appreciate Chinese food a lot more after living there!!
