Finally here in Shanghai! What an amazing city.
Took a while though... had a more than 10 hour delay departing Hong Kong yesterday due to airspace congestion in China. Apparently it's really common? Crazy. Anyway, it meant a 15 hour tour of CX/QF's HKG lounges and a pretty coughpy arrival to my hotel at 4am this morning.
And the taxi into town! Oh boy... I don't think I've ever had a stranger more furious at me. He couldn't read my phone screen with the hotel's name. Rookie error. Next time I'll be writing it down. ¥300 later and we made it with lots of shouting and pointing. Fun!
Hoping to catch the maglev back to the airport on Sunday night though.
The adventure continues!
