On the Air China flight ready for  flight to Shanghai, 4:15 AM wake up call.  Next to a young lady who speaks a little English. The airport was amazingly quiet. Great acoustics. Very peaceful. Plus everything is new and clean.  Micheal Jackson wannabe in the airport. Western influence, most Chinese in the airport dress in western style with a Chinese flair. Businessmen dress in well tailored suits.  Discussion about radiation in Japan affecting Shanghai. Hope prevailing winds are not to the west. Shanghai airport new since they hosted the world expo in 2010
