Enjoying the Club Floor benefits and the view!Boxing day was again another different experience than the one I usually experience...in other words no left over turkey or ham in sight!
I began my journey to Shanghai in the early hours to meet David, who flew in at 8am (or so I thought!) Luckily I was able to negotiate my way to the hotel VERY easily - early preparation of an emailed business card in Chinese definitely helped! I had splashed out booked into the Crown Plaza Fudan on the Club for - lots of benefits, cocktail hour, free Internet, club lounge, food, breakfast etc.
Our Room 'The Chancellor Suite'! It even had 2 bathrooms and a walk in wardrobe!
As I was early (just a mere 5 hours) they did not have a non smoking room available, already expecting to just drop off my bag off, wait for David and then go into town until check in time I was pleasantly surprised instead of turning me away they then offer a King Suite...HELLLOOOO!
David arrived in 1 piece about an hour later and we spent the day relaxing.....I even got to have a bath...oh the luxury of it! We were the only ones for cocktail and snack hour and enjoyed the view from the 19th floor looking out over Shanghai! Breakfast the next day was sensational (that one was for you Anna!) and after a late check out we stopped off for some fake market shopping and an early dinner at Simple Thai (god,I miss Thai food!.....maybe my next move will be to Shanghai!), before catching the late train home!
Very tired after a long day carrying lots of luggage!Today is another lazy day, clearing up loose ends, relaxing, massages and dinner tonight with friends before packing for our trip to see the Pandas (YAY!) and to picturesque Lijiang!
I can't wait!
I hope that everyone has a fantastic New Years and a big hug to Laura....Happy Birthday for today! - Love you lots!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Arohanui,
Love Amy xxoo
Your room looks SENSATIONAL Amy! Hope you have a ball in Lijang! xxx
