It wasn’t really underwater. It was on a basement floor, below sea level, but not underwater. Unless everything underwater is always florescent, in which case I’m mistaken. Rachel’s idea of trying something “a little different” was certainly that – on Wednesday night, over in the New World Centre in Pudong (on the dark side of the river, where we seldom visit), we ventured into a strange world of crazy golf, Chinese style. We declined the offer of having our own personal scorer, and stumbled through the course with our florescent golf balls and clubs. A strange experience…. Rachel has these ideas…
The previous night’s strange experience wasn’t of Rachel’s doing. An attempt to try out a couple of bars on the Bund before heading to the Red Door restaurant sounds innocuous enough, but after being refused entry at the Red Door for our lack of burlesque outfits to walking out of another restaurant for being insulted by the waiter over my choice of beer (amongst over things), it was another strange night.
A few more such nights await before we leave…
- Rachel, me and Bron in the Lighthouse bar
- Absinthe cocktails in the Long Bar, Waldorf Astoria
- View of Pudong skyline from the Lighthouse bar
- Although the boat looks superimposed, it was definitely there…
- A shark floats by
- Look, we have florescent things
