Throughout Shanghai, a careful people-watcher will notice that older men love to strike poses on the side of the street. This phenomenon is particularly visible on a Saturday morning between 8am and 9am as all of Shanghai's retired men escape the confinement of their apartments and stride down the street until they find a good perch, whereupon the goal seems to be to stand as quietly and majestically as possible for about thirty minutes.After people-watching, I joined a group of students headed towards an enormous fabric market. The girls got fitted for traditional qi pao's (the long silk dresses) and then we went for a surprisingly enjoyable lunch. After a long nap, my roommate Ryan, myself, and several friends soaked in a bit of Shanghai's jazz scene. The evening culminated with the arrival of Sugar Mama, a back up singer for Tina Turner back in the day. Sugar Mama's not insignificant figure and her powerful voice aroused significant admiration amongst our Chinese companions.
