DAY 9 - 27-01-2009 - TRAVELLING

Got up at 5:40am didnt need to get dressed as we were already sleeping fully clothed.

& of us; Heather, John, Rachel, Sophie, Russ, Clare and me walked about 40 mins back up to the wall in pitch black dark and waited up there till the sun rose - very beautiful watching the sun light up the landscape.

Back at hostel had a crazy luke warm shower (hot water only on for 1 hour a day)

Hung around at hostel for a few hours - has fried rice and beef in onion sauce for breakfast.

Bus back to Beijing to catch hard sleeper to Xian.

Hard Sleepers

Not as bad as they sound. Six to a compartment, three beds on top of each other. Pretty comfy.

Lights went out at 10:30pm managed a few games of cards then slept.

13 hour journey to Xian.

Got to Xain around 8am
