Kitty's Big Trip

At the end of May, my kitty took a big trip to the other side of the world!

While he was gone, we kept in touch through Skype:



He stayed in a big hotel, with his own bed!



He visited the old buildings:



And old bridges:



He drank his favorite beer:





Then he ran from the local "Police" (their word for their local constabulatory):



Their gas stations contain "OPEC" in their names:



Do you know where kitty went?



This was the tallest tower (not technically a building) in the country until 2007:



And this is the atrium on the 53rd floor (looking UP) at the top of what was the tallest building in the country until 2007:



And in 2007, this building was topped off, and became the building with the highest occupied floor and highest roof in the world (so some called it the tallest building in the world)!





Kitty says Ni Hao from Shanghai, China:





You'll see construction cranes midway to the top of what will soon be the new "Tallest Building in China" on the right side of the skyline pictures above.

Kitty made a side trip to Suzhou (the "Venice of the East"):



And a highway trip to Lin'an City:



He liked the funny cartoon taxi guy:



And met new friends:



He says he had a good trip and that I should go with him next time!
