It's way too early on Saturday morning! I have been up since 3:45am after falling asleep around 9:00pm. This jetlag is kicking my a$$!
Mark left VERY early yesterday morning for a week in South Africa. I am once again...on my own in China. I am gong to go to the gym in a bit...it is not open till 8:00am on the weekends. I will also do some organizing and rearranging of my belongings since arriving and unpacking. I will be busy doing that over the weekend.
I went to Shanghai yesterday with a few of the expat ladies via the high speed train. We went to the fabric market and did a bit of shopping. I like going to Shanghai via the train and being able to use the metro system to get around the city. We had a mad dash to catch our train home! You have to purchase your tickets in advance to secure a seat. We had purchased out tickets the day before and knew we needed to be back in Suzhou before 5:00pm. We were scheduled to be on the 4:11 train and barely made it with 3 minutes to spare! It was a mad dash through the train station I'll tell you...but we made it! Crisis averted.
I hope to go to Monday morning coffee and then after that, venture onto the new metro line in Suzhou. So far, one line is open an I haven't checked it out yet; as it opened in April when I was back home in the US. I am looking forward to the adventure and heading downtown for some leisurely walking and checking things out. I hope the weather cooperates with my plans.
Time to go and start the day...
