The Jarmans arrive!

The Jarmans arrived safely in Shanghai and were thrown straight in to the hangover recovery program of Costa, egg fried rice and a massage. They did so well we even dragged them to the pub to watch the rugby. I knew that the jet lag had gone when Ant announced (after several beers) that he had a second wind and Anna decided to tuck in to the Amaretto!

The next morning they were served a true Shanghai breakfast- jidan bing.  It is basically a very thin pancake filled with egg, chili, coriander, fried dough and other unidentifyable but delicious things!





They were only in Shanghai for a couple of days before heading down to Guilin but we still managed to eat dumplings twice, order Ant six shirts and Anna a couple of dresses at the fabric market and stroll along the river!  

                                     



Of course Anna and I also manged to fit in a pedicure at Dragonfly, another Shanghai must!
