Our first destination after disembarking was food, and a quick walk took us downtown and the familiar People's Liberation Monument. The area was bustling with people even though it was an ordinary Wednesday evening. Just like last time, we ended up in a food court like area. The many delicious and exciting choices make it hard to choose. All four of us picked something different, and we convened at a table to sample our own and each other's meals.
Back outside, we walked by but did not stop in the expensive designer store that surrounds the People's Liberation Monument. After a bit of walking, we were ended up in a more residential area, where the delivery men were feverishly sorting the enormous piles of packages out for delivery.

We just returned from land tour/4 day Yangtse River Cruise. We were in Chongquing for about 6 hours. Didn't know it would be that long, until the day before, and of course we couldn't accesess FB to message you. That downtown is something else! So many high end shops! Also blown away by all the high rises, mile after mile! We we're in Shanghai, Yechong, Xian, Beijing and Hong Kong. When we were in Chongqing, we were at the Stillwell Musuem (which we assume is only frequented by American tour groups to demonstrate Chinese American cooperation)and here singing of Christian hymns coming from an apt building. Tour guide said it was a Christian home group. That was our one sign of Christianity in China. Hong Kong was another story tho.
