Fall is a good time to visit China, weather is cool and a few less tourists to deal with.  We asked our good friends Matt and Shelly Kerby to join us in China for some site seeing and indulging in wonderful food and drink. We spent two days in Shanghai before moving onto Huangshan Mountain.  <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Freeman Move on top of the Shanghai Tower, currently the second largest building in the world.  Shanghai Tower is 2,073 feet \/ 632 meters tall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Linna Freeman lighting things up in front of the Pudong skyline. I started traveling to China back in 2000 and at the time there were only two tall buildings in Pudong. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Looking down at the Pearl Tower and the famous Bund Street from the Shanghai Tower.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Looking down on the World Financial Center from Shanghai Tower in the Pudong district.  At this posting date, WFC is the 11th tallest building in the world at 1,614 feet \/ 492 meters.<\/p>\n
