All travel guides warn and explain this Shangai phenomenon to you, but experiencing it is a whole different thing. It´s about spring which is supposed to be vey short and last for maybe 4 weeks.
Well, here is how we experience it:
Only on Monday it was still cold enough that you had to switch on the heating and still enjoyed snuggling into a nice pre-heated bed (love our heated blankets :-)...
On Tuesday the weather was truly awesome and the Skyline of Shanghai looked ever so glamerous under the clear blue sky. It was just about warm enough to sit in the sun with a long sleeve.
Another 48 hrs later I´m finding myself already in a short sleeve on a roof top terrace, sipping cocktails until 2pm in the morning and not feeling cold at all.
And today I started already wishing for the aircondition and realized that my brand new haircut will look by far less cool in summer, because of the humidity.
Now here is the thing: My wardrobe is full of winter stuff. And all my summer clothes are still happily sailing somewhere between Germany and China. We were told that they will not find my cupboard until middle of May. The weather forecast on the other side is showing sun, sun more sun and great mid 20 degrees. And if that would not be intouch we have a beach holiday coming up in 2 weeks... Here we go: I MUST! go shopping!!!
