Today was pretty quiet after my run this morning. I took my bike out for a little ride and met my friend, Joan, for some afternoon tea (which turned out to be coffee.). The coffee shop that I went to was in the same neighborhood as the Shanghai Library so I stopped over for a little peak. It's HUGE, the largest public library in China! And it was open on a Sunday, unheard of in the States!
I plan on going back to buy a reading card, I hear they have
lots of foreign magazines and newpapers. Worth the 25rmb yearly fee.

Sorry about the super dark pictures. This was the cafe that I met Joan at, run by a Japanese husband-wife team that roasts their own beans. She sold the meet-up as afternoon tea but turns out this place only has coffee. Some of you may know that I don't EVER drink coffee, not that I don't like it but more because of the effects that caffeine have on me. Since I had just arrived from very cold bike ride over I decided to order a cup anyways. If I'm tired and crabby tomorrow we'll know why!
