Zara has started beginner ballet at a small music/arts school and goes Tuesday and Friday afternoons for a 45 min class. Even though it didn't take much convincing to get her to dress up in pink frills and pink slippers, enrolling her was more about getting us out of the house, meeting others and seeing a bit more of the streets of Shanghai. Turns out the school is tucked down a little laneway in the former French Concession area which is an absolutely stunning part of town. The streets are shady (tree-lined), clean and relatively peaceful. And unlike the area around our apartment building, there are no noisy elevated highways or 12 lane roads to negotiate. We take the subway four stations from our place to the Shanghai Library stop, then a 10-15 minute walk to the school. Max sometimes comes along for the ride.
