train ride to Beijing

People were everywhere.  Many sitting around or sleeping on the streets.




Were waiting for Vincent to find out where to go to catch our train. 
We were very grateful that he walked us to the train.  It was like a cattle call.

Kind of narrow hallways.
And cabins.  Not sure we'll fit.


We did!  Wahoo!!  The cabins sleep four people.  Since we used our Marriott points in Hong Kong for both rooms, Brenda and Dave bought the other two beds for us so we wouldn't have to share.  It was a nice surprise. :)
Enjoying some farmland has we head out of Xian.

First of all congrats on the upcoming wedding. I think that is soooooooo exciting. AND at the temple!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME. I am so happy for you guys.

I loved reading all of your updates. It's been a while since I got a chance to sit down and read.

Love your posts about your trip to China. It made me remember our trip there in 1997. We had a lot of fun and it looks like you did too. The pictures look a lot like our pictures. :)

Sending you hugs.
