Tried to sleep in a bit today but ended getting up around 6 or so.   Got my stuff organized and had some breakfast.  Felt a bit lazy so lounged about the room before meeting some of the others for lunch.  Hung out in the restaurant and had a few beers with everyone as we waited for our final briefing about the trip to Xi’an.   Due to security issues, only passengers with tickets can enter the train station so our guide had to leave us at the door.   We managed to make it through security, to our lounge and gate and onto the train without any issues.  The journey is about 12 hours so we should be in Xi’an around 8:30 tomorrow morning.  Hopefully I’ll manage to get some sleep tonight!
