Not having much to do last Saturday night, Xianyi and I decided, at Candice’s suggestion, to join her in visiting the new Toys R Us, Shanghai. Da Hai was in town and so he came along with us.
The place, first of all is pretty big. It is inside the Super Brand Mall in Pudong, which is HUGE. There were a lot of people in the mall itself, but most stores seemed to be empty, except for Toys R Us. Perhaps this will mark a resurgence for the Super Brand Mall.
Right at the entrance, Geoffry the Giraffe is there to greet you, along with Buzz Lightyear and Optimus Prime. There are plenty of Legos, including Socialist Legos, and even Chinese versions of popular American board games like Monopoly.
Check out all our pics here.

Enjoy some photos from our Christmas Brunch! We had a bunch of friends over for champagne brunch two Sundays ago with eggs, breakfast potatoes, toast, pastries, bloody maries, mimosas, oysters, shrimp and santa hats. Lots of fun. Click here to see a slideshow of photos.
