Picasso in Shanghai

We made it to the Picasso in Shanghai on the last day of exhibition.  It was my first time seeing Picasso's art.  Although I didn't quite understand most of it, Mom explained to me with the help of the audio guide.    I like the way he put the colors together and the composition in his abstract work.

Starbucks

The smallest Starbucks I had ever seen.  The person takes your order in one "column" and goes to anther "column" to make the coffee--fully utilized the space.  It's located in Shanghai Center (上海商城).

Panda play in Shanghai Zoo

Shanghai Zoo has gone through major face-lifts since we moved to Shanghai almost 3 years ago (same as lots of parts in this city).  It has become a good place for leisure and learning, and much cleaner than a few years ago.  Although it has room to improve, it's indeed impressive to see such big changes occurring.  Panda is sort of a must-visit spot in major zoos in China.  We were really lucky to see three panda playing together for almost 10 mins.  That was much cuter than what we used to see--eat, eat and eat.  We figured cold weather is actually a better time to visit them, and Kungfu Panda might not be all imaginary...
