Happy New Year from Shanghai

Last night we welcomed in the new year, similar to most in that we had a Chinese meal and a few beers. We then headed down to the Captains Bar which had a great view of the Pu Dong area. The sky was filled with Chinese lanterns (the orange dots in the sky) carrying the new years wishes of many, it was a beautiful sight. The roof top was crowded ready for the countdown and then on one of the 3000 skyscrapers a big clock appeared ready. The clock struck midnight and fireworks started, big rockets with big bangs, it was cool.
 
I hope you have a wonderful and safe New Year!
