Preparing for the Weekend
Tomorrow is Friday, the beginning of the first (and hopefully the last) weekend for me in Shanghai. I may have to fly to Guangzhou on Sunday and will stay there at least for one or two days, so we plan to visit Xihu (the West Lake) in Hangzhou this Saturday.
After dinner, three of us went to the Shanghai Station to buy tickets for our small trip. Beside the station, what really caught my eyes were the people waiting for their trains. Lots of people sitting or lying everywhere on the ground with their luggage. They even have diffferent waiting areas for different tickets. There were no time table or information desk in the station, and the police or staff were not very friendly, either. On the subway home, I finally experienced what it's like to be inside a REALLY crowded train.
