Tuesday 21st September
Well we went to the Terracotta warriors in the afternoon which were really impressive. We hired a private bus to take us there and back which was nice for a change. We have taken lots of pictures to show you all, they are definately as (if not more) impressive as you imagine! On the way back we went to a nearby local restaurant to try chinese traditional dumplings which were actually really nice, and then we got dressed up to go to a karaoke bar.
The bar was really posh, we were taken to a private room just for our group which was great...we have tried to upload some pictures for you all! We stayed for 4 hours so we didn't get back until 2.30 am which would have been fine if we hadn't had to get up at 6.30am to board a 15hour day train! lol.

Thank god we had beds so we could all have a sleep on the day train as we didn't get to our hotel until 1am. The locals on the train found our group just fascinating! lol. One guy even decided to just come and sit on our bunks and try and join in the conversation. lol. but he managed to insult a number of our group within minutes by guessing peoples ages...he aged our oldest group member by over 10 years. lol.
Thursday 23rd September
We had a leisurely morning as we arrived late and all went for lunch then at midday. We now have a free afternoon which we thought would be the perfect chance to update our blog! We are meeting at 5.30pm to head to our boat for 2 nights, apparently it is a chinese tourist boat so we are the only english who will be on it, so no doubt we will be an attraction! lol.
Will let you all know how we get on, won't have the internet for the next few days so will update asap!
Thanks again for the messages, oh and dad that definately sounds like something Richard would say.lol. tell him I miss him too. lol.
Lots of love Leanne and Rob xx
