My Shanghai experience was the result of an invitation to present a paper on Audio Description at the 18th World Congress of the International Federation of Translators. The photos in this gallery are focused on my experience at the Congress and views of Shanghai: the Jinmao Tower, the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the Yu Gardens, the Bund, a silk factory, the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum, a cruise on the Huangpu River, a walk through old Shanghai, the Shanghai Art Museum, the Shanghai Museum, the textiles district, the opening night of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and finally, a trip on Shanghai's "MagLev" on my way to the airport and my flight to Beijing.
