A day visiting more sights of Shanghai then a flight to Yichang

The morning was spent visiting yet more gardens and they are really quite beautiful an tn to see. This time we went to the famous YU Garden built during the Ming Dynasty and then on to the Jade Budha

temple which was truly amazing and then finally to visit the famous BUND over walk where you can see all the huge skyscrapers.

After lunch we then headed to Shanghai Airport where we board and plane for Yichang and n from the airport to join the vessel 'East Queen' passenger vessel for a trip up the Yangtze  River for a few nights. 
The flight was very nice and the crew and also the flight crew came in to the cabin and bowed to wish us welcome and hope we have a nice flight. Most unusual to have this happen and I doubt that it would happen on British Airways.
We arrived on board and were given a very nice cabin complete with all facilities and then upstairs to the bar for pre-dinner drinks before the formal welcome dinner with load of Moutai the famous'bloody awful' Chinese rice wine.
