Lunch at 1+1 Restaurant
I ordered what I did based on my understanding of most of the characters 
in the menu description and on the picture.  What I got turned out to be 
either chicken skin (or chicken intestines?) with vegetables on top of 
rice.  No meat, only fat.  I ignored the skin and ate the rest.  The 
sauce was good.

Qinci Yangdian Temple in Pudong
Qinci Yangdian Temple, the largest Taoist temple in Shanghai.
Countless side rooms were filled with seated generals such as these.
An intricate relief of a dragon.  Wow, what a tail!
These gods are not as big as Melaka's Buddha but are still pretty large. 
The movie begins and ends focusing on the weapons these statues use when
they come alive, perhaps.

Pudong
Returning to Pudong proper, I spotted many ufos landing on skyscrapers.
As this panoramic movie shows, Lujiazui Park in Pudong is the most open 
of any park I've seen yet in Shanghai.
It's the count-the-cranes game.   The answer this time is 9.  
(That's all I could fit into one picture.)
