bund tunnel & 1er snow experience



the bund tunnel under the Huangpu River
separates the prime piece of Shanghai land and its sky scraper infested Pudong
similar to how HK Island and TST is separated


this ride is accessible just by the tourist spot
where all flock to see the beautiful view of wai tan (the bund)



for a short barely 5 minute ride, it sure costs way too much .....

My first snow experience ......
Historically, Shanghai is not a location that one expects snow ...
in 2009, it snowed for two hours
this year, it snowed for seven hours ......
some say this is perhaps the longest snowfall in a long time ...
and there might be another forthcoming on 26 Dec ....
what's my personal thought of the snow experience like?
when it first started, it was really awesome ....
i was confused ....
raindrops or perhaps ... another new experience for me ...
after 30 minutes .... viola, confirm ..... snow!!!!

when the fall was mild, its pretty cool ....

u see tiny flecks of it .... dropping .....

no, i did not stick my tongue out ......

but as it was heavier, its pretty much like rain ...

you gotta get covered up and all

and i had to buy an umbrella to stay dry.........


it was freezing cold .....
check out this drop of water that didn't quite make it out in time ....
