Greetings from The Bund

Ten journalism students from the University of Illinois are visiting China as part of an international reporting class.  On May 18, in Shanghai, student reporter Lauren Thorbjornsen interviewed classmate Elizabeth Murray as they stood on The Bund.  The Bund is a pedestrian walkway along the Huangpu River, just across from the famous Pudong district of Shanghai.  Behind Lauren and Liz, you’ll see the famous Pudong skyline that features the 1,500 foot tall Oriental Pearl TV and radio tower, third tallest TV tower in the world.

Awesome!  You’re really great.  I also enjoyed Elizabeth - I met her at graduation.  “Bund” sounds German to me!  -KathyJ

Very nice Lauren. I agree with Kathy - “Bund” does sound German. are you sure you are in China? Love you and keep these video feeds coming. One comment for constructive learning - stand more so we can see your face and not just your profile. A little to the side but I want to see that pretty smile:) Love you and Miss you! Come home soon - we have lots of Wedding planning to do!
