Towards a greener city, Shanghai here I come again

I have never seen Beijing so dirty as it has been these few days, hurts to breath! A lot of of airplanes have also been cancelled so I took the bullet train to Shanghai. Can't see a damn thing outside....

The time is actually almost the same because no check in or other airport security checks etc. About 4.5 hour ride of 1250 km and the price is also cheap, 555 rmb for one way ticket. Best thing is that 3G works on the phone pretty well and it's possible to do work and other things online on the computer while travelling. 

No bag limitation on the train, loads of people have so much stuff with them. And people here don't trust to put bags in storage spaces that are available so they drag bags next to the seats so it's sometimes really hard to walk aroud. 

For the first 3.5 hours was just yellow mist everywhere, never seen is as polluted anywhere like this before

Came to renew my visa which is done once a year. The first day the weather was awesome and sky was clear, after just seeing smog for a week this was a relieve. 

The work permit center was packed with people and when I got the line niumber 70 people before me. Despite that it only took 1 hour to wait, giving in the paper was smooth and was done in less than 5 minutes!

Every company needs a card like this to even get a que number to be able to process the documents

 
The second day in Shanghai the pollution has moved here partly. Not nearly as bad as Beijing but not good either.
