Facebook and my blog were accesable in Hong Kong but as soon as I entered mainland China both of them were blocked, I could just access them through my iPhone applications. It was therefore impossible for me to post any of my pictures which I captured with my big camera. Now I'll post my travelpath and the pictures which I took during my trip.
After Hong Kong I went to the big city Shenzhen, I didn't know anything about Shenzhen before I went there. I got very surprised of what I saw. I saw a big modern city with broad streets, high buildings, nice restaurants, clubs and of course a lot of people as well.
After 24 hours in Shenzhen I jumped on the train to Shanghai, it took 18 hours and I had some Chinese famelies as company during my trip. The kids were totally amazed that a foreigner were on the same train as them. Playing games and exchanging sweets (I adh some Swedish ones with me) with the kids and socializing with the Chines people was what I was doing during these 18 hours. I even got some really nice rest during the traintrip, 9 hours of sleep without any interruption.
Shanghai was a very bustling city with high buildings and much people. It was maybe the biggest amount of people that I've encounterd in all cities that I've visited... In Shanghai I also meet a exchangestudent from Busan, she took me to some nice streetfood market. There we ate some frog and some baby lobsters.
Expresstrain from Shanghai to Beijing took only 5 hours maximum speed was 302 km/h.
In Beijing it is so much to see, also Beijing is a bicycle city with broad bicycle roads on every street. I was so tired when I reached the Great Wall of China. Spending almost 3 hours on the wall I looked forward to take cable car down, but I soon realised that it was closed and I had to walk down (quickly as well because the last bus was leaving in 2 hours). This was the last day so missing the bus would have been a disaster because my flight was leaving after 8 hours.
Well I made it in time (thanks god) and I reached Stockholm as planned.

A lot of kids there, and their favourite play was "climbing the stairs up and down!"
