Kathryn returned from Beijing on Sunday afternoon and, in true Kathryn fashion, she was ready and willing to head out for shopping, a bite to eat or whatever. So, after some quick catching up, she, Liam and I headed for area we had been to on my last visit (Unfortunately, I'm completely blanking on the name at the moment. I find this happening more and more since I passed the big 4 - 0. UGH!). I love the opportunity to highlight areas like this since it can shatter the images a lot of us have of far off foreign lands such as China. I know the great wide world is continually challenging my way of thinking. Kathryn, Liam and I are sitting in a chic, cozy second-floor cafe which has a teddy bear theme. You can see Liam is thoroughly enjoying his teddy bear cookies. He was enjoying them SO much that we had to coax him a little bit to get him to share. I think he's taunting me at this point. From the window of the cafe, I'm looking down on one of the many twisty, turny pedestrian alleys filled with boutiques, restaurants, outdoor cafes and maybe even a club or two. Very cool. There are very few places hipper than Shanghai!
