Pink Ferrari

Pretty sure they don't come out of the factory in Italy looking like this. Unsure how anyone can spend half a million dollars on a car and choose this colour.

Food court

This is part of the food court in the basement of the shopping mall beside where I work. There are plenty of tables to share lunch with a friend, but they've installed a special "sit up for singles" area where you can perch on a padded bar, slurp your noodles in relative privacy and be entertained by advertising in Chinese courtesy of individual LCD screens. I actually sit here quite often! Modern China!

Snack

Well that's Christmas gift shopping sorted.

Yellow mountain

Bananas on sale at Carrefour - imported from the Philippines. And priced at about $1 per kilo. Wonder how much the poor farmer gets.

Shanghai cut

Snapped this on my phone as I strolled past while waiting for Zara to finish gymnastics on Saturday. Quite happy with how it turned out - the light, framing and detail - all made to look better with a bit of help from the Instagram app.
