Rhonda has no fingerprints left from her work as a safe cracker but that&#8217;s another story.  Our driver was delayed 30 minutes with a flat tire!  But all went well after that and we got to the hotel by 10 as it&#8217;s an hour drive from the airport to downtown.  It was an impressive nightscape as we arrived into Shanghai proper. Shanghai is the largest city in China with 30 million+ people and the 3rd largest in the world after Tokyo and Delhi.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279.png\" class=\"wp-image-1066 size-full\" height=\"1536\" width=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.caseyplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_1279-400x300.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are headed out for some touring this morning and evening so looking forward to our first full day in China!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We made it!
