Kind of mad because I'm going to be in Singapore the weekend after that race. Again, great report!
Thanks so much mustang281man. Getting into the garage was an awesome treat, and I recommend any F1 fan do whatever they can to get in there some time. I'm glad you enjoyed!

The Formula 1 must have been an experience, and the tasty Xiaolongbao at Din Tai Fung. They recently opened a DTF in Dubai and I am a bit of a fan already.
Thank you DanielW ^ It was awesome indeed. Enjoy DTF!!

China is moving so fast, I'm sure I won't recognize Shanghai if and when i return.

Yes, Kaiba was quite Tasty - thanks for the reminder. T8 had a really cool bar, had I been awake I would have stayed longer.



The last installment is coming tomorrow.
