We went to The Bund today, which literally means embankment. It is an area along the river known for its eclectic architecture and sight seeing tunnel. We only did a small portion of the Bund, it was very sunny and warm today so I was a bit worried about not having sunscreen. We had lunch at Subway, Lily ate an entire 6 inch sub with chips and a cookie! After we walked along a promenade with great views of the river. Lily had lots of fun taking pictures and actually got some really good ones. Maybe we have a future photographer...
The Bund is also known for its sight seeing tunnel, and unmanned shuttle that takes you under the river while enjoying a light show. Charlie was a bit scared at first, but got into all this lights. At the end of the shuttle there is a small market with souvenirs and trinkets. Most of it is junk and can be found at a thousand other places in China. I did get the kids names written in Chinese and English though. This is something that will be a cool memento of their time here.
