    Looks like I'm headed out to Shanghai for a week. I'll be working most of it, but might have time in the evenings and maybe one weekend.

    Anybody have any advice or things I should check out? Anybody know where to catch the football games? I'm going to be missing one game.

    Museum is a must see. By the way, are you flying coach or business class?

    Business....I don't think I could do 15hrs (from NYC) in coach.

    Finding the game is close to impossible. I tried on two different trips. Get ready to have your computer up.

    Great food everywhere, just make sure you ask the right people. Simply Thai (yes in China) blew me away. A street vendor had incredible breakfast wraps authentic to northern China. We couldn't get enough of those. She was near the Pudong River area across from Hotel Eton.

    All the authentic chinese was delicious, especially the vegetables and fish dishes.

    Have fun. There are some great people over there. If you can go south for a day, visit Hangzhou. Marco Polo called it heaven on earth.
