After almost two weeks in Shanghai I had a chance to observe and conclude :) There are many things very different from what I am used to, some are very strange to me and almost everything is interesting.
What is interesting is a huge interest of Chinese people in non-Chinese kinds and babies. What is starange about it is how strong they react…
During our first days, we were walking close to the TV Tower (Oriental Pearl Tower). There were of course many Chinese people enjoying the day. Many people were pointing at us and especially at Marcel and Vincent. And so far nothing strange about it… Suddenly a small group of people came closer to Marcel and started taking photos of him. One girl grabbed Vincent and asked her friend to take a photo of them… That has created a crazy spin of new people coming to us and taking photos of our kids. We were so surprized by this behavior that we didn’t react in any way… Until we ’woke-up’ and started walking through the crowd.
The other day, my mom was walking with Marcel in his carriage in the shopping mall and again, suddenly, some people came and took the cover we were using to protect him from the spot lights away and started looking at our little boy, talking very loud and pointing at him to other people passing by.
I know he is very cute (J), but this way of acting gets quite scary…
