Papa John's kept opening store in Shanghai in a speed higher than many people's expectation. After I saw the first Papa John's store in Biyun International District of North-East Shanghai, more and more stores appeared - in Xujiahui, and another in Biyun District. It has more than 20 outlets in Shanghai. The two I saw today are only within 7 minutes' walking distanct. It either means bad planning or a sign of high demand. My observation is the latter.
I stepped into the Papa John's store near the B&Q store. It is almost full, with only 2 tables left. It looks Papa John's is having a good business.

Meine Beobachtung ist die letzte.
Ich trat in den Speicher des Papa-Johns nahe dem B&Q Speicher. Er ist, mit nur 2 Tabellen nach links fast voll. Er schaut Papa, den Johns ein gutes Geschäft hat.

This is a normal Saturday. It is cloudy.
Ihad a short walk with Wendy near my home in Pudong.
This is a normal place in Pudong. Here are some random photos I took today. This is the beginning of 2007. I am very sure that after 1 year, the view will completely change. Who can predict what is going to happen in China these days? Take a look at these pictures.

This is typically bricks on the sidewalk in Shanghai. It rained yesterday, so some parts are wet. The sidewalk is pretty clean now, since the Chengshan 成山 road was just completed one year ago. It is a pretty empty road now. Who knows what it may happen after 1 year, when the road extends to the east, and forms the backbone of the road system in Pudong?
