We made it to Beijing and made it to our hotel for only 4 rmb, thanks to our new friend we met on the train whose friend gave us a lift. Thank-you Cicily! The train ride was comfortable and we cruised to Beijing from Hong Kong in 24 hours. From what we've seen so far of Beijing it is a modern metropolis, a far cry from the villages we passed by on the train where corn was being laid out on the pavement for drying. Tomorrow, after a good nights sleep we'll plan our sight-seeing in Beijing as well as purchase tickets to our next destination.
