First Encounters

I was greeted by a very sirley driver that was not amused by my bastardized greeting in his language. I immediatedely felt the rush of "oh my god what am i gonna do!" when i charaded and said "mobile phone" and he took me the nearest pay phone, which is part of the reason why i still don't have a cell phone yet. So our drive into the city was long, it took an hour and half, there were three accidents, and multiple men pulled over and peeing in the street. Hello Shanghai!
