Photos: 'Shanghai Twenty Years Ago'

newoldshanghai100906.gif
We admit it: We love looking at photos of "old" Shanghai. And in this case "old" means "20 years ago." ESWN posted some photos late last month (sorry we are just getting to them now -- we were busy getting married in Thailand). There are 10 photos in all, including one we have written about before. You'll see that white shirts were apparently all the rage in the 1980s.

The older photo above is from the link, as well. We found a current shot at pretty much the same angle, which you should also see above. Yep, a few things have changed.
