Scott Lynch Visits Shanghai





Another college friend has dropped into Shanghai for work. This time it was Scott Lynch. Scott is married to Kristin who I lived with during and after college. For our family members following this blog, she sang at our wedding.

It was so great to see Scott and catch up with him. The kids and I last saw him a couple years ago when we stopped at their house in Columbia on our way from Myrtle Beach to Cleveland. He was here with his job and his boss was with him.

Kirk and I took him out on the weekend to some of our favorite spots including our new favorite, House of Blues and Jazz. (Watch the video: Both Scott and Kath took the stage. Kath was carried off by the lead singer). The next day, I took Scott and his boss, Rich, around Shanghai. We did all the major tourists sites like Xintiandi, YuYuan Garden, ate Nanxiang xiao long bao, People's square, the Urban planning museum, and finally the new Shanghai Financial Tower. That tower is reaaaallly tall! If you are at all scared of heights, don't go up to the top.

He and Kirk were supposed to go golfing on Sunday, but it rained. He expects to come back in December. Hopefully he will bring Kristin with him!
