Man that was a blast. We got to sit up in the very front row. It was a stupendous time. I bought the dvd of the show for a 100 kuai or 14 dollars American. I realize that I have already expounded on this fact but everything is so damn cheap here, its wonderful. Each one of their acts came out and performed to some sort of appropriate music. There was one where somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 girls rode one bike to the William Tell Overture. There was also some funny vaudeville sort of acts that also performed. I'll post some pictures. One of my favorites was this straw hat dance they did to the tune of the Cantina music from Star Wars.
I also went looking for clothes with couple of friends at that labyrinthine mall. Basically, good luck finding anything in a store here if you are tall. Or have big feet. And common male waist sizes here are like 28 and below. Although a friend of mine told me about the fabric district where tailors will custom make shirts and suits for a song. She said that you can get a suit for 300 kuai which is essentially 42 bucks. I need to become a business man who travels between Shanghai and America and gets paid in dollars, considering the per capita GDP here is 1500 American. Ok well much love as always and harken back dear reader for more adventures.
