Hi Guys!

Just a quickie to let you all know we've arrived safely 😊

The flight was one of the most comfortable and enjoyable I've ever experienced. We had a few hassles getting a bus/taxi/train from the airport in a country where we couldn't even guess the language but we arrived and checked in fine.

We're staying at a little hostel called the Happy Dragon, just outside Tian'anmen/Forbidden city. We've had a few drinks in the bar and played some cards etc anbd even managed to wangle an invite to the owners new years piss up next month 😊 Tomorrow we're off to explore the capital and figure out our next weeks plan - trying to decide whether a 18 hour train ride is worth it to see the heavenly lake or whether we should just head off to Xi'an to see the terracotta warriors...or both 😉

Anyway, its 2:30am so we're off to bed, will write more soon!

Love always,

Glad you got there safely guys. And totally do both! The name Heavenly Lake should make that decision obvious!! :-) xxx
