Day 17

---

Awoke early yesterday 5.15am! as early start again for train. Had a lovely send off from the golden gobi, tea and breakfast and big hug from the mama. We were then escorted onto our carriage-very helpful! where we awoke our cabin roomate at 6am eek!. Lovely German man who had been on since Moscow. We must of been in foreigners cabin as then met a Canadian girl and her two friends who she met on train. Crossed Chinese border-which was not as long as Mongolian one thankfully!. Early to bed last night as not much else to do. We did however get free tokens for breakfast and lunch next day!.



(Just a side note-I now no longer have facebook whilst in China, and possibly some other countries, will try upload some pictures on here if possible.)

Finally out cold now we are in china. We did manage with cold but day we got train it was minus twenty five and felt it too! Everywhere we have stayed has been lovely and welcoming :-) have a lovely private room now in china and courtyard. Although no kitchen here. How is sofia and livi? Hope all the family is doing well. Look forward to meeting sofia xx
