I arrived in Shanghai in the morning and took a taxi to Captain Hostel. The price is 60RMB or $7/night/bunk. I don’t need to make my bed by myself. The hostel does it for me and get clean sheets for me everyday.
Guests in the hostel are from all over the world. According to my observation, at least 1/3 are young Japanese at their 20s. I talked to 2 Japanese, 2 Scotish and 1 French.

I went shopping in downtown Hankou.
Back to old days when people don’t have tap water.
People in Wuhan used to take their own bamboo beds to entertain and sleep outside in summer.

A shopping mall not far from my home in uptown Wuchang.
DVD price at this Wal-Mart in Wuhan is 5.9 RMB or 75 cents Canadian each. They are legitimate DVDs. Those pirated DVDs can be purchased at the price of 1 or 2 RMB or no more than 25 cents Canadian each outside the mall. The wholesale price for pirated DVD is 50 cents RMB or 6 cents Canadian each. They are sold for Canadian in Chinatown here in Toronto.
