Last Saturday we had lunch in one of the Park Hyatt restaurants, on the 91st floor of Shanghai's newest skyscraper, the Shanghai World Financial Center. After days of rain, we were thankful that we could at least see to the ground! Clear skies were not a consideration. :-) Despite the gray weather, the view was amazing as the building is situated at the bend in the Huangpu River. So cool to see around the bend in both directions.
In the background is the spire at the top of the Jinmao Tower, formerly the tallest buildig in Pudong. I didn't even recognize it at first because I've never looked down on it!
A glimpse of the Pearl Tower on the left...
Looking down on the Luijiaziu financial district, the Huangpu River, and Puxi beyond.
Back at street level again, we posed by a Century Avenue sign, the skyscrapers of the financial district behind us.
This gentleman enjoyed watching the girls!

Oh my goodness! I don't know if I could have handled going up that high! I'm such a scaredy cat! Looks like you all had a great time!
Madelyn got a hair cut! It is pretty. Her hair was pretty long wasn't it?
Wow. That last picture is absolutely dizzying. What makes us think we can build such things? Seems to work....
Great to see your folks!
