you should see if they have an "america town"

I have never been to china before, but I hear there are some interesting chinese-english translations on signs
There are very very few signs in English in mainland China. And very very few people in mainland China speak English. When traveling there, you quickly learn to adapt to the language barrier. For us, the hotel conceirge wote out the places we wanted to go in Chinese characters and made our restaurant reservations for us (we told him where we wanted to go and when but he made the calls) and we used a guidebook that spelled out all of the sights, hotels, restaurants in Chinese characters.

It's a great country to visit. It's growing by leaps and bounds, food is good, sights are terrific and people are welcoming. And there are quite a lo of E60's in Beijing and Shanghai (although virtually no 550s or M5s).

Didn't stay long in Shanghai. I'm in Thailand as of Monday 3am. Leaving for Phuket Island in a couple of hours for 3 days then back to Shanghai. If anyone goes to Thailand, checkout the Skybar.

The view is amazing.

Came back today. Shocked to see so many people with new mods. There are lots of mods while we were away.
