We got a flyer in a Magazine here in Shanghai advertising a Kid Expo at the Shanghai Exhibition Center so we decided to check it out. It was basically just a bunch of booths to stop at and get information about services provided in the community. Decathlon (a local sporting goods store) was doing sports demonstrations including fishing. So the kids could fish in a blow up swimming pool and take home their catch (goldfish). I don't know what it is about Chinese people and goldfish, but goldfish are everywhere - restaurants, school, grocery stores, etc. After waiting for quite some time and dealing with a lot of invasion of the personal space, we gave up on trying to squeeze between the herds of Chinese people smashed around the little blow up pool. The boys got a brief golf lesson and what kid doesn't love a blow up jumpy castle. Overall, not a bad way to spend a rainy Saturday and it was free.
